Shooting Star

You casted my eyes into a fixed gaze
Upon your countenance.
Your casket lay in that grave.
Exactly 6 feet of distance

Separate me from you and I---
I can still hear those words.
“Lacey is no longer alive.”
And I die too, but not aloud.

You were a shooting star,
Casting my gaze upon you,
Turn my head to you.
I am shedding this skin tonight.

Your soul ablaze across the sky,
I wish upon you,
My shining shooting star,
Come back to me

And show me that wishes
Really do come true,
Because the truth is, Lacey,
I miss the fuck out of you.

Why did you leave?
I was almost there.
