For Love of a Star
By Jeanine Prouvaire

Am I allowed to breathe?
For you take my breath away
It's like a dance
Between me, a humble poet
And you, a star.
The light you shine is a beacon
And must be answered.
I hope only that my love is enough.
You are
A light of hope amid the despair,
A light of reason amid the confusion,
A light of love amid the hatred.
You are my guide.
That I were your fuel,
That I could burn away
For love of a star.
