The nighT was dark and still A silEnt brEeze blew from the hills She looked with hope to horizoN far And cAst her wish on a single star Praying she would Gain salvation Praying, “Send mE a hero to save me from damnation.” In that cuRsed nation in which she lived Where the nighTs were dark and still And silEnt brEezes blew from the hills Hope lies beyoNd the horizons fAr Wishes Granted by single stars NeEding salvation Saving fRom damnation Oh, living in that cursed nation! Life never fully lived Nor lacking in luster You need your strength All you can muster To live a life lacking But not without luster |

This is interesting, the capital letters spelling teenager, teenager. I'm guessing this "nation" is the adolescence and we must live with luster? (luster meaning shine or gleam?) The last two lines threw me off -J |
