Wish Upon A Star...

By Jet

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I used to stand below the stars And make my feelings known. I'd tell the rocks and moutains How I wished you were my own. And so the stars above me Heard all my pleading cries. It seems that all the fabled myths Were really only lies. For it seems the stars are broken. They no longer hear my prayers. But watch with cold indifference As you walk by me unawares. My faith in love has vanished. The stars betrayed my trust. Each time you kiss another's lips You grind my dreams to dust. You never knew my love. You never knew my touch. All I wanted was a moment. I didn't ask that much. Written December 13th, 2001 © on Dec 12 2001 03:15 PM PST   18 • 0 • 1
