» shifting stars

why am i fighting
nothing but the roars
and the echoes
of my wishes glimmering,
taunting, glowing
just outside my reach
why am i fighting the stars 

( & i know that everyone
struggles too – must
 strive to earn their way too – 

but just for once, 
can't the stars
shift in my favor? )
