Seventeenth part of the [21 Elements] project, inspired by Final Fantasy Type-0 (Reishiki). I'm playing the game!
This poem is dedicated to [Alicia Nicole S. Cruz], the wand-wielder of the element...

LXXXVII
STAR
Running, running
Through the night
You pursue
What kind of bright?
Is it some type
Of golden light,
Or one that brings
A blinding fright?
All alone
Up in the sky
What great sadness
Makes you cry?
Is it thoughts
Of loneliness,
Or the sting
Of emptiness?
But then, you walk
With your own feet
To galaxies
Of infinite
And you search
That kind of bright
The one that brings
A clearer sight
Off you go
Away from home
You run and chase,
Wander and roam
For that one hope
To make you smile
You travel millions
Millions of miles
You ride a comet
Through the ice
And keep away
From deadly eyes
In search of brightness
Fair and clear
All horizons
You won’t fear
But years went by
Without a trace
Without a smile
To fill your face
You hoped for love
In empty space
And wasted time
In senseless place
And finally,
The chance is slim
Your fuel dies
Your light goes dim
It’s hard to not
Give up the game
Of searching for
Something so lame
But what turned out
This very night
Is you pursued
That kind of bright
That type of shining
Golden light
Has been with you
Your guiding sight
