I saw a shooting star last night,
it may have been a dream, but it didn't feel like it.
I closed my eyes and quickly made a wish.
but when I looked up again,
I saw the star laughing at me as it flew by.
"only the gods make wishes come true", he said.
the stars just laze around,
their beauty reason enough for their existence.
"try again tomorrow", he laughed again
"after all, there is a sky full of stars!"
my wish didn't come true.
that's probably not very surprising,
considering I wished for you.
