Starry Night
To dream
What for
Disappointment on hold
Life unfolds
Another star falls
On my lap
Another one that didn’t last
Quickly turning into dust
So fast
The dream
The star
Was all it was, dust
What more follows
The night sky still sparkles
Beckoning, inviting
Promising tomorrow
Another star
A billion more
For sorrow
