To dream <br />What for <br />Disappointment on hold <br />Life unfolds <br />Another star falls <br />On my lap <br /> <br />Another one that didn’t last <br />Quickly turning into dust <br />So fast <br />The dream <br />The star <br />Was all it was, dust <br /> <br />What more follows <br />The night sky still sparkles <br />Beckoning, inviting <br />Promising tomorrow <br />Another star <br />A billion more <br />For sorrow <br /> <br /> <br />© 2009 Sonya Florentino<br /><br />Sonya Florentino<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/starry-night-3/
