Jul 2011
I count them in the night sky.
Wish to be one on Hollywood streets.
I see them in my mind's eye.
For each, a memory.
I'll never forget, no matter how many fill my skies.
Made to stay and shine, as stars do.
Where are you.
Other than in my heart and in my mind.
A star so bright that all go blind;
Who dare to look except for I.
The only one who can truly see, exactly what they mean.
These tiny things that shoot across so quickly.
Or stay and watch, never to leave.
Silent protectors to love us as we sleep.
To comfort as we weep.
But never to speak.
Forever silent.
Forever beautiful.
Forever in my memories.
