Oh when the stars fell

It was a shame for such beauties to be replaced by lanterns

“But where else would we’d get light?” Well,

I heard the stars were bright,

Y’know, people who actually create from the mind and not from what their told

“Oh well” they said

“Oh well that the stars fell, we’ll just create new ones.” They said,

New ones, but how could you replace stars that were born from the sky?...

Did they know they were falling?

Did a breeze grace their right cheek

On the way down?

Did their best moments come to mind?

Did they have nightmares

Of the ones they wronged?

The protégés innocence, stolen

The original author, forgotten

When the Stars Fell

Did they know they were falling?

Did a breeze grace their cheek

On the way down?...

When the stars fell

I think they must’ve

Reformed as you

I’d spend my life

Just orbiting you

Because you shine

Like no other...

When the stars fell , I fell too

My eyes torn ,from staring up at the blue

My wrists scared, from the pain of needing to feel

I NEEDED to feel

I did feel

I felt what others could not

I felt what others didn’t want

I felt the things that could not be understood

I don’t want to feel anymore

What I feel is to much to feel

The pain is to much to bear

But I don’t have to bear it

I can take away the ...

when the stars fell—

they didn't crash

but (like children)

tumbled

laughing—

spilling

handfuls

of themselves

across

the

grass

—you were asleep

your mouth dreaming

the shape of a word

your lips

almost touched

so i ran

barefoot

into

the dark—

where (every step

a small

new universe)

pretending to be a game

an...

and the stars all fell

the moment he said

that he didn’t love me

anymore

he didn’t mean it

but he wanted to hurt me

and he did

so badly

i don’t know how

i’ll ever love again...

When the stars fell,

they shattered like glass across the night,

burning trails of silver sorrow.

We reached out,

palms open to catch their glow,

but the fire seared our skin.

Still, we kept our hands raised —

for who could resist holding the broken pieces

of heaven?...

Your eyes, like lanterns in the night

guiding me to a place of pure fantasy,

Telling stories your lips could never say

singing to my deaf heart.

I know this damn world was so beautiful in those eyes

I could stay swimming in them for ages and never be tired.

So why?

Why am I suddenly lost with no way?

Why is this world the ugliest thing in existence?

Why do I hear no sound?

Why do I want ...

It came suddenly, there wasn’t much warning,

Sure, there had been whispers,

But nothing seemed guaranteed,

Yet much like it started, there was a big bang,

And everything broke apart all at once,

A universe was extinguished,

Too much damage had been done, without fixing,

Now something beautiful has withered,

And there’s nothing left but blame,

When the stars fell, they fell hard and fast,

What ...

When the stars fell

I look up and

Wish I could join them

For even as they fall,

They are free

And they explore

The beauty of our world...
