Wishing on a star,
How can love be stretched so far?
Distance plagues our hearts,
As failure lurks unnoticed in the darkness,
Will we be strong?
Or will weakness overcome us with sorrow?
Creating doom for unforgettable tomorrows…
A future uncertain; bound by the past,
Lost and alone to wonder,
In a space filled with half a soul -
Longing for the other,
Trapped in an endless cycle of torment,
I grasp the emptiness you once held,
Wishing for your kiss of gold,
Dreams twist into morbid reality,
As fire burns out desire…
The smoke is all that is left,
Dwindling wisps of lost memories in a broken sunset,
As reality hits like a burden on a heavy heart,
Flashes of what once was have crept,
So silently into my bed,
Cautious I feel for your shape…
But all is too late!
Nothing remains,
Just a simple whisper,
A shadow of love,
Left to wonder…
Why fate has brought a stranger,
A ghost of you,
To haunt in the lonely echoes,
