Fallen Star

 
Moonlight hugged the misty ground,
stardust kissed the breeze.
A shooting star fell from your eye,

Falling...
Falling...

It fell inside of me.

Embedded deeply in my heart,
sheltering from the storm,
It said it could never leave,
afraid its absence would leave me torn.

Though, if i swim through sea of glass,
and climb the mountain of your dreams,
I could wake up in your arms,
returning the star to thee...

With every stroke..... every kick,
my body burned with flames.
Splintered glass broke through my skin,
Bright red blood escaped my veins...

As my blood mixed with the glass,
rainbows danced on the horizon,
lighting up a twisted path,
leading me to your mountain.

Every step, which I took,
sandy grains dug in my soles...
Desperately, I bit my lip,
stubbornly, I carried on...

Higher....
Higher...
Higher, I climbed...

Sunbeams hidden in your smile shone...

Brighter....
Brighter...
Brighter, still....

I had almost reached the top


stumbling over sharpened rocks
i lost my balance and i fell
far away from your dreamy heavens
into the darkness of your hell

waking from my slumber
in your arms so strong and warm
rainclouds blocked your vision
blinding you from all my wrongs

"who are you?
why are you here?"

i replied

"i am your fallen star
i swam your seas
i climbed your dreams
i fell... i fell so far"
