Analysis of Star
Sometimes in my solitude
I tried to lookup
And stare at the twinkling light of the stars
And I was obsessed with their beauty
I then remembered the promise of the Almight
That we will be as many as the stars
That He will carefully form
And will be given a companion
Suddenly I it came to my mind
This world is so huge
That He thought of making someone to love me
And I will be drawn closer to Him
In my mind a picture formed in my brain
A creature with a well -built physique
With intelligence and assertiveness
Brave and with a heart when fighting
But no matter what other characteristics I list
I still wish he was close to God
Wouldn't it be better if we served Him together
To Him who has worked for the two of us
It would be better if we would shine together
Because we will take care of each other
Dreams come true in old age
And in the world we will leave light and mark
I knew he would take care of me
Because once, I traveled the world
Harassed, beaten and returned home beaten closed
I wish I could give up
In the world I was made like a handkerchief
Wiped with the tears of whoever
And when the parts that used to be dry are completely wet
Just throw it away
I know there are other stories
Stories formed before we met
Because it’s like notes that go apart
Sometimes darkness also envelops your world
Like the stars that look up at the sky
That strain shines even when the surroundings are dark
I will wait because we will meet too
And at the same time dance and grow in heaven
