How to Catch a Falling Star
October 9, 2009
How to Catch a Falling Star
Stars only come
To those who are
Out of luck,
Out of time,
Out of dreams,
Out of hope.
Stars only come
When you least expect it.
Stars can burn
When they touch your skin.
It seems,
For everything,
You must pay a price,
Take a risk.
Often
There is only one shot.
One shot to catch the star.
You need to really will yourself.
Throw your arms out as far as they can go,
And don’t,
Don’t
Think twice.
If you think
You will resist.
Don’t look back.
Always look ahead
Look for a star…

that sounds a lot cooler and more mysterious! when you get published you should have the definition on the first page, though, so people know what it means.
