A Shooting Star

By: Anna L. Jennings

Sitting outside under a yellow moon surrounded by a million bright stars,
Something led me to search the night sky.
I had been thinking.
I suddenly looked up into the sky for a truth.
I saw a shooting star fly through the blue sky.
I made a wish.
I saw no logic beneath my wish...only yearning.

I felt all my life flash before my eyes.
I never gave up and never stopped dreaming.
All the wrong slipped right through my fingers, and my heart.
I found something I never knew existed in me--
I found you.

You're my guidance through the darkest nights.
Without you, I don't even know my name.
It's not that I can't live without you,
Without you I don't even wanna try.
