Twinkle Twinkle Lost Star

by Lady Nik   Nov 3, 2009


Standing in a low lit room
wishing for a star tonight.
I am but a lonely lover
a plane out of flights.

Where has my star gone?
Where does its light reside?
Wandering the world alone
folded into a ball where I hide.

Twinkle Twinkle lost star
I miss the way you shine.

Back against a wall
legs shaking beneath me.
Blue in the face from suffocation
I forgot how to breathe.

An atmosphere so thick
that trees never grow.
Leaves fade to crumbs
transformations forever unknown.

Twinkle Twinkle lost star
I miss the way you shine.

Fickle dreams of lovers past
take hold of my head.
I try to remember just one
The one who caused the most dread.

The one brighter than flashes of neon
one with the heat of a thousand suns.
The one who has my heart
the one who did a love and run.

Twinkle Twinkle lost star
I miss the way you shine.

    Sometimes an event or person takes away the star within us and we do lose that shine and it can be turned around in that the person you love leaves and that star is not twinkling anymore. Well done.

    I can feel the loneliness behind these words
    and the hurt of a love that has left..it leaves
    the reader lingering with sadness. A touching
    write..take care.
