Listening to the hooting of the night owls,
I shiver inside remembering how,
How you managed to take from me the will to live,
In place of all the love I continued to give.
Feeling the cool damp blades of grass tickling my bare feet,
Breathing in deeply the night air is so sweet.
Watching the stars twinkle brightly in the sky,
I sigh, and wonder why....
Why the memories you helped create hurt so much,
Why I still think of love and dream of such.
Why do I still dream of you?
Why do I see you everywhere I go and in all the things I do
Sighing, I sit upon the dew covered grassy banks under the stars,
Looking at the land and sky as they spread out so far.
This world holds many mysteries,
As does the thoughts I have and the memories.
Listening to the sounds in the warm summer night,
I lay back to gaze upon stars so bright.
I wonder, what would it take to catch a star?
To make it your own, and keep it from ever going away so far?
To hold the magic within your hands,
To know a peace that you would want to stretch across the lands.
To know that love is perfect and not painful in any way,
To know that it can be perfect in all you do and say...
I wonder what it would be like to have these things?
To know perfect happiness and have a heart that happily sings,
I sigh deeply as the tears roll down my cheeks,
A sob escapes past my lips and I cannot speak.
I think about you and the things we used to do,
I remember the love and how much I cared for you.
Yes, all things I remember and wish from afar,
That I wonder and want, and wonder how you are?
The magic of the night fills my soul with the memories of you,
I sigh, knowing I will always care for you, no matter what you may do.
Think about me darling, and wonder from your place afar,
If I am happy, and if I managed to catch the star.......
