I look above me to the stars
That's how they all go, isn't it?
Yeah, that's it
Stars... you say you named one after me...
But you're not here to show it to me
You tell me about the beauty of your home
Yet you're not here to show me...
When will you fall back to me?
Were you ever here to begin with?
You may be somewhere out there
But are you just falling out of reach?
I can't see the star you named
I can't see your face, your blonde hair
I can't see my hand in yours, squeezing gently
I can't see anything except in my dreams
I miss you...
But I know you'll come back some day
I wish I knew when that'll be
I wish you would defy gravity and come back to me
I want to save my tired soul
I want to hold you in my arms
It just seems so hard
When you're falling out of reach

Maybe you should change the genre of this poem. It fits more into 'sad' than 'angst'. Just a suggestion, no offense meant.

*sigh* you didnt follow the rules again, but i LOVE OLP!!!! this is an AWESOME SONG! Wow, once again you hit the meaning right on the dot, with a twist and some extra flavor too, the best out of the two i've read so far, (the other is yours, lol) Great Write
