Starry lights
The fake faces of the smiling dead,
people coming from all over the town,
paying homage to the long-gone graves,
telling them it’s all okay, don’t stay apart.
Light under the bridge, you & I meet,
the soul flying high with the clouds,
as the bustling street stopped the flow,
my tears intermingle with your sound.
I take steps with the wobbling heart,
slow-paced music under cosmic dance,
why did you stop? I ask low-toned,
the shaking fingers paving the lost path.
Past kills past, present always rings,
the universe it is, flow with the winds,
stay upfront, don't look back at me,
I was not yours, after all, to begin with.
Still my wish, I say, I want to embrace,
at last, you are me, for the past sake, I appeal,
it will change nothing, you smile,
as my tears vanish with you in the starry light.

A/n: Embracing your past self, and holding onto them won't change anything, wipe off your tears, rise again, smile at them, and flow with the winds.
