Blue Night Star!

Hello…To the one up there…

For the first time, we speak!

Forgive me, I lack the smile!

You did smile at me yesterday!

As today passes and tomorrow comes

You will still smile at me!

I see your bling-bling eyes - But

I look at your lonely heart!

Are your days harder like mine?

Are your nights darker like mine?

Is it getting hard to breathe?

Is that why you’re an insomniac?

Loneliness is the path we walk!

Misery is the air we breathe!

Faint-hearted is we, all the time!

Sleep is one thing we long!

Pain is one thing we have!

Look! We are not so different!

  

Everything for me ends with you!

I see you! You see me!

My love circle ends with us!

I feel like I’ve gone transparent!

Do you feel the same way?

I cannot see you be the

same like me! Cry to me!

I'll only be ears and shoulders!

It’s okay to feel lonely, at times!

Let out a deep sigh. Speak.

It will ease you a little!

I don’t even want your name

Nor even your star sign – Just

the real you is all needed.

Just the “You” you are hiding.

The “One” no one else knows!

I’ll be only hugs and holds!

I won’t try to judge you

I might not understand your feeling

Still, it’s alright! Cry to me!

Does it hurt? Sigh deeply, please!

I’ll be the one you need!

I’m stretching my hand for you!

Don’t leave it hanging – Just how

everyone else did for me!

No words needed. Take my hand. 

Hold on to my hand, at least!

It might ease your heart, passably!

You light the night sky eternally

Even though your sky is darker

Forget who you’re for a night!

Let’s just be two perfect strangers!

Lighten your heart, lead anew dawn!

It will ease your heart, hopefully!
