Sometimes i wonder

sometimes i wonder if the stars i wish on

are the very same ones you gaze upon

if we both truly live under the same stars

then why are we worlds apart

life is like a matchstick

it burns bright, intense and quick

more brilliant than the stars for a brief moment

before it is snuffed by the moons lament

this torment is more than my soul can bear

yet my eyes refuse to shed a single tear

i stand up and wait for the dizziness to fade

before falling asleep to await another day.
