Shooting Stars
By Asteria

One dark starlit night
I wept under my blankets,
The sheets clutched tight
As I gazed out the window,
At the calm midnight rain
As salty tears trickle down my face,
Stinging my glassy tear filled eyes
As there I lay trying to kep my tears at bay,
As I dont fight it, nor try to deny it
As I give in the the truth that lay before me

I dash to my window sill
Climbing up to the roof
in which we used to laugh as we lay
On that cool gravel floor
As I weep and relized that I had been betrayed
And after all of the nights we spent talking
and all of the help I gave you
And me giving you a shoulder to cry on
You stabbed me in the back and lied

You said I called you names
That I would use such vulgur words
To insult you when I did no such thing
And you told these lies to our friends
With that silver tongue of yours
And tore us apart,
from the close friends we once were
You tore apart the late night talks
You tore apart the times you would vent to me
You broke my trust
But most importantly you broke my heart

So now here I lay
Under the pale moonlight and rain
As I bask in the tears, sorrows and fears-
Of what I will do now that our friendship is through
The tears I shead are all in the thought of you
As they cascade down my cheeks
Like the shooting stars on the cold rainy night-
My final night alive
