A reminder of a choice
I can't make again
But I don't want to change
I've dropped my soul before
And I'll do it again
A silence falls
at the same time as sound
But it says
So much more
I can't meet your eyes
I can't control my mind
I'm a lone dancing star
I'll never know who you are
I want
you to throw me
Past the River Seine
I want
you to touch me
Open your fingers, kiss me again
But you're just about as likely
to kiss me
As you are
to come back soon
You're just about as likely
to love me
As you are
to catch the moon
And when you touch me
My star hits the ground
With a silent sound
you'll never hear
The moon stares down
Unmoving
No reprimand, no sympathy
for a single star
A head tilted
Years forgotten, gone
A leaf wilted
A lone star dancing on
And on
And on…
Spinning away
And I want
you to throw me
Past the River Seine
I want
you to touch me
Open your fingers, kiss me again
But you're just about as likely
to kiss me
As you are
to come back soon
You're just about as likely
to love me
As you are
to catch the moon
