The thought of love
is wanted by all

Some wish it sweet and carefree
where others wish for a safe place to fall
but all wanting the same four-letter word

love

I, however, wish for something else
I wish for truth
not love

looking for love
has made it almost impossible to trust words
when the actions hurt worse

Still looking
Still dreaming

dreaming of falling in love with a Star
A star who would make all my problems finish
A star
who doesn't know I exist

The thoughts bring me hope
I hope that I might find love one day
I hope that there is someone out there
just waiting for me

"Wish upon a star, and your dreams will come true."
A star falling into my lap and loving me till I draw my last breath?
That will certainly
Never happen

but it does leave a smile on my face
even if just for a moment
