Dreamer’s Star


Once I look at the night sky

And thought

Why does everybody seemed to love the stars

When they know they can’t have those

Some deeply stare and mesmerize their being with the stars

Later they’ll realize that its too far

Then they’ll get upset

Some would wish to catch those shiny little rocks up there

Wish that the sky would recognize how much they love to have those

But then they only end up wanting

Some would push an effort

Making themselves astronauts

Making themselves feel the space where the stars are resting

They enter thy galaxy to have a sense of fulfillment

They enjoy every bit of the moment when they, both, are embraced by the same arms of the milky way

Then time comes they have to go back to earth

I realized

No matter how happy you are

When things seemed not to be made for each other

You would still need to go back to where you came from

No matter how bad you want to stay

You still need to leave

Maybe I’ll just be one with everybody

Who stares and wishes

Who dreams and waits

Maybe the sky would lend me the star I want to have

For a moment, can I have a shooting star
