"As Stars Fall"

They leave a trail of tears,

Tears of happiness,

Tears of pain.

Tears that will never, never, go away

As stars fall,

They leave a spot of hope

They grant our wishes

They help us cope,

even when they

are about to die

As stars fall,

They bring thoughts of regret,

Reminders to listen to your heart

To see the world without fret,

To taste victory and defeat

Else you'll lose your grip on the world

As stars fall,

They tell a story,

They play a movie

They sing a song,

Reminding us

To always be strong

A beacon of happiness

among the broken-hearted

Holding out a hand

to those departed.
