Waiting for a star to fall

Standing alone outside,

Standing and looking at the sky,

Nobody would hear me, even if I screamed or cried

Then the sun’s rays start to die

Because the night has arrived.

*

I stand alone

With the mountains as my throne.

And then the sun finally disappears

And star after star appears

The fierce wind tries to rip me away

But it cannot – at least not today.

And the stars seem closer

As the darkness completely takes over.

*

Standing on this rocky peak

Closer to the stars I seek.

And a long time has gone past

But I know I’m not the first and not the last.

And still I stand proud and tall,

Still waiting for a star to fall.
