WHEN SHOOTING STARS DREAM

When Shooting stars dream

I've been by myself all night long
Tripping at every recall
How easy it was to die in severance
Still it took a whole life to quit
Emptying my soul to breathe yours
Clearing my mind to read yours
In the Quest to win you back again
Holding my heart to steal yours
A memory, teardrop, or an instant reverie
Steering me to a bitter truth
A beautiful lie
With your vision still bright in my eyes
With your breath still heavy in my sighs
I'm Waiting for another glance
A believer in my final stance
For the cozy warmth yet to come
Depending on the second chance
Let's befriend the missing essence
Let's be fond of the happy impressions
Because the time to come
Has a better dream to offer!
