If You Are My Shooting Star

Your memory will always linger here inside my head.
All the days together I will cherish 'till I'm dead.
I constantly remind myself I'll never see your face again
-- What was once will never be,
... nor will it be erased.

I'm trying hard to get along
aware you are forever gone.
I find my mind wanders towards you
even when I don't want it to.

I know I'm breaking into pieces;
-- I can't seem to let you go.
The memories, so haunting, still...
I cannot let them go.

It's tough to try and ease this pain
without seeing your smiling face...
my lips so dry,
my eyes... so Lost.
I'd do anything to hold your hand,
but you have taken off...

I fear living this lonesome life
without a hand to hold.
All this time you soothed my heart,
and now, it's growing cold.

Tell me, what am I to do
when I am not looking at you?
A home so solemn; empty, bare.
I wake up thinking you are there...
-- But I am all alone.

I know It's in the past and I have got to find a way
to let myself accept the fact that you have gone away.
Truth be told, I'm worried still, that I won't stay alive
-- How can I exist if there's no way I can survive
without
you?

If you are My Shooting Star
-- what will I do now that you're gone?
All my wishes won't be granted
cause there's nothing to wish on...

(Shooting stars come only once,
Make sure you make your wish.
For shooting stars go only forward;
gone in just a mere instant.

~

Shooting Stars are in the sky,
you watch as one passes you by.
You make a wish, hope it comes true.
I always wait, but
They
Never
Do.)

    Wow! Such a heartfelt piece. I don't usually read the ones that strike me as sad.. more just brush through them.. but i am glad i took the time to stop and actually read this one. It is surprisingly deep, and thought provoking. You are a very talented writer, must be to captivate my attention for so long! I only hope that this is simply a well written piece, and not an indication to something that has happened. Once again.. an absolutely beautiful write! Best of luck in the contest!
