it's just another night
and I'm staring up at the ceiling
I imagined a pure, midnight velvet
covered in a canopy of speckles
in rich golds and pearly silvers

I watched a star shoot
as if it were a bullet
in slow motion, elegantly,
flying across the jet black blanket
of the night we were engulfed in

it made me think of you,
how you'd laugh at it,
saying you don't believe in wishes
from shooting stars;
but that's what I put my hopes,
my dreams in.

I'd just smile, making a wish
nonetheless, that I'd never
part with someone like you

when you respect someone
so damn much
you don't want to lose them

but we're on either sides of the universe,
as the skyline splits into two
and the only one who can really be blamed
is me, and not you.

it was a turn of events and I'm crying
out right now, it's a good thing
that you'll never see me
again, anymore

I can see the stars
from my bedroom floor
the ceiling we both painted
and I wonder do you see the same
stars as I do,
on your bedroom ceiling we
replicated the night sky onto?

because all it takes
Is a silly, shooting star
and a dream - a wish that
your heart makes;
and I know that it's wrong
that I can't move on

because everything comes back to you.
