tonight i made a wish on a falling star, reflecting on how far id fallen
tis only a matter of time before i too burn out and am flung into the earth
bodies far removed from each other by unfathomable distances
both traveling great lengths to share a final resting place
casualties of limited exposure along a path of self destruction
precious few witnesses to this spectacular display,lost again in the light of day
though the brilliance never left it was simply outshined
for those who yearn for the dark to shed light on less than stellar lives and find comfort in dreams

(woe is me)
my intentions fell away, only a vague taste remains
enough to sicken me anyway
i choke down words,hold back tears, afraid of the sting they'd bring to my cheeks
with floating eyes and silent sighs i write line after line to escape what ive created
no, not life
more like a guide for dying, all the while lying that im really alive
though my chest heaves and heart beats,my eyes reveal a sadness no written word can
a pleading gaze for an early grave and the peace that awaits
