of course I aimed to end up with the stars

Of course I aimed to end up with the stars.

Second best and I never knew better, bitter eyes stare at me, make the cake batter, bake the cake and serve it to everyone with the consolation prize.

Of course I’d never whine. The trophy winner and the moon are having a good time, how could I interrupt? My green eyes could rupture at any moment, flying with envy, caressing and kissing cheeks because of course I couldn’t kiss the lips, I simply didn’t have access.

Of course I end up with the stars. They’re as hot as you’d expect them to be. Branding me with their mark, I am one of them, as are the rest. I didn’t sleep a wink, I couldn’t take rest, I couldn’t congratulate and wish them the best.

Of course, you win. Take away my love with you on the moon. I’ll dissolve in the stars. I’ll dissolve with the stars.
