Stars

I sit here wishing on stars,
All of the these are so far,
The words left my lips to fall on deaf ears,
Traveling through the years,
Getting there too late,
The star has met its fate,
These words are said in vain,
Leaving me filled with all this pain.

As I feel my heart play on strings,
That I thought were broken,
Playing music to give me wings,
Leaving me with these words unspoken,
But still I force them out,
Straining with all of my might,
I hear these words spoken with such doubt,
Wondering if you will believe them tonight.

The light from these stars is just a lie,
These words go unheard and pass them by,
Their brightness hiding their death,
Leaving these false hopes on my breath,
We wish in vain on something that can't save it's self,
Wanting it to make us into something else,
It never happens these words fall on deaf ears,
They spent too long travelling through the years.
