Gold

every soul is a star

and for every star there is a soul


i want to shine

like i did a billion years ago

like a river

like brand new copper wire

i want to shine like gold

like a candle

like lightning

like a house on fire


but there are dreams

i have yet to forgive

and parts of me

i haven't let live

in a while


there are walls inside

that sadness built

and loneliness

pain and guilt


i only know this:

the more i love

the brighter my smile


my heart once said

every soul is a star

the sun is a sign

that every body

makes the cosmos whole

light is what you are

so dance with joy

and shine!
