Rating: 5.0


Please help me
The stars are falling
I cannot wish upon them all

I hear your voice trembling
Why are you making this
So hard
I hear your tears falling
Why did I let this get
This far
Again

Please help me
I think I’m screaming
But I'm not making a sound

Oh Star
I wish upon you
I wish that I’ll be brave
When you leave me
Alone

I feel you brush against me
Why can't I feel you
Let go
I feel you whispering to me
Why did I let you do this
To me
Again

Please help me
I think I’m falling
Can you wish
Upon a broken doll

I hear you, feel you
I taste you, smell you
I see you, I see you walk away
From me

Oh star
I wish upon you
I wish that I’ll be brave
When you leave me
Alone

very nice....but i don't really think the title fits.....this poem has depth and is a good read...but i don't think that the title really demonstrates what it beholds....that would be the only thing i would change.....truly a good piece :)
