"the stars would be so proud to know their atoms created somebody like you."
words
i do not want your fame
i do not need your money
i do not require your love
i just want you to inspire me.
inspire me,
like the moon to the stars
like the mistress to her lover
like the sun to the earth
inspire me,
like only you can.
for in this wretched world,
possessions will rot
statues will crumble
memories will fade
but you,
my inspiration
shall live
forever.
