Star light star bright,
First star I see tonight,
I wish I may, I wish I might,
Have this wish I wish tonight,
I wish I did, I wish I could have,
Realized all the things I should have,
I wish for the past, I wish for what I should've,
I wish that we were still in love,
I'll wish for you, and I'll wish for me,
And I'll hope our love still can be.
I wish for love, and even though it's lame,
I wish that you would feel the same.
And when I go to bed this night,
I'll wish that you were with me tonight.
So star light, star bright,
First star I see tonight,
Grant me, but one wish, that I might,
Have you fall back in love with me tonight.

Interesting take on an old rhyme. But... I didn't feel it was very original to be entirely honest. It was good... But sort of cliche.

I love the imagery in this. Congrats on winning the bronze.

This is very beautiful! The only thing I could comment on, is that it is sort of copying the original verse written "Star Light, Star bright, First star I see tonight" That phrase. It is very stunning, and I hope you win that other contest! Best of luck in my contest and thanks for entering!!

I thought it could be better...
There could have been better description, and more actual physical refrence.
