[Fingers crossed; 8:06]

"Had I used stars as metaphor
In love poems, I wrote before?
Hoping I did not.
For stars represents the dead
And death means not coming back to life; to permanently leave.
Unless reincarnation really do exist and you do believe.
Stars are poetic
but never will I compare our love with the dead
to prove it's burning red
Perhaps, I am the sun,
and you are the ocean.
Patiently waiting for me to set
As you sooth my rage
And I calm your waves
leaving humans in awe to why
I used the horizon as my new metaphor. . ."
