stars

sometimes i genuinely wish

i was a star.
imagine living
as a little ball of gas
without a care in the goddamn world.

the way we have to make ourselves act & exist
in this society we call home
makes me feel like a ball of gas,
however, i do not feel like a star.
i feel like i’ve been kicked around
like a ball in a field,
but life is pain
and life is beauty.

there are two sides to being a star-
you’re a beautiful thing that may admire,
but you’re also a giant ball of nothing
in the middle of a gigantic solar system
where you don’t matter.
and how i wish i was a star,
at the same time,
i like the weirdness of me.

i do feel like a star
in my own special way.
maybe we’re all stars.
