We sat for hours
And hours
Laying
Watching
Waiting

For what?
What we wanted
That star.
Isn’t that what everyone needs?
Just that one wish
That can change everything

It came
And it went
And I made my wish on
That star.

I whispered it to myself
It was so quiet
What if it didn’t hear it?
That star.

No
It heard everyone
Everything
It wanted wishes
It wanted mine

After I wished
I looked down
Then I looked at him

I knew I made the right wish on
That star.

He leaned in
And whispered in my ear
I heard your wish

I smiled.
We kissed.

Oh, how sweet it was
And gentle
And I knew
That star.
It didn’t need to hear my wish
All my wish needed was a true listener.
All my wish needed was
Him.
