FALLING STARS

HOME

 

by Mathew Cheung

 
   

I've yet to see
A falling star.
Is it just me
Or is it too far?
 

I've gazed and gazed
Many a nights
And passing days
With still no sight
 

What is wrong?
I've been watching
For way too long
Eagerly waiting, and waiting.
 

For when the stars have fallen
When can I see them fall?
Tears from heaven
On down a midnight wall.
 

Something purely inspirational,
Right on the verge
Of sensational.
To captivate my urge--
 

To rise and excite
My imagination
Of a streak of light
With no destination.
 

Star-crossed phenomenon
On a celestial plane,
Quick dissentions
Like drops of rain.
 

I've yet to see
A falling star.
It has to be me,
It can't be that far.
