Even the tallest and most lofty trees have the most reason to dread the thunder.


was i a fool

for hoping

we'd make it

too far

 

coz you tricked

me into thinking

you were

my North Star

 

my path, you led

and i was guided

my path, you lit

when i was adrift

 

and though

it seemed

you gave my

life direction

 

somewhere

somehow

we got lost

in navigation

 

my path, you left

i was misguided

my heart and soul

now unprotected

 

perhaps

it's good

we didn't reach

too far

 

coz i can

find my way

back to

the start

 

you tricked

me into thinking

you were

my home

 

but all

this time

i was a star

on my own

 

thanks for

guidance

and thanks

for the light

 

from here

and on

i will be

alright

 

 

for all the little things i'll surely miss

i think it's time

 

farewell, Polaris.

It's sad that we didn't make it too far. But isn't it better off that way? At least, from where you left me, I can find my way back to where I was before I met you. And start all over again.
