Expanses

This lesson learned the hard way is daunting
In a life lived solitary lonely and wanting
I found that some radiance shines too far
A soul can scar, it happened when I tried to trap a star
The balance of things was too upset
And the other stargazers wouldn't forget
The pressure quickly became unstable
I was searching for truth in a fable
You may think you know who a person is
But blinding is the star that you burden like this
It's bound to become an illusion of what you wish it could be
When you do good you should throw it in the sea 
In morals, sad men should try to become well versed
Never drink poison to quench your thirst
