Stars

I lie on my bed and look up Watching the twinkling stars Looking like a carpet of hope Shining near and far Each star can tell a story Of a life of many years Throwings its light across the skyline Alighting on faces wet with tears Maybe Tears of happiness This might be the case Or the tears of a life One can no longer face. But the special star I’m looking for Is the one that shoots across The divide of life and longing Sending stardrops on my love
