Blind

Those are the same stars, everynight they keep on falling. I can still remember, that glimering light that crossed the skies and burned my face, kissing my eyes goodbye. Those are the same, the silent light, the everlasting shine...

"Why did you bring me here?"

Those are real you know?

"What?"

Past, future... Are just names. But this night, the darkness giving goodbye to the sun, the embrace of the stars falling and glowing... It's all real and here. I wanted to share it with you...

"You're going away aren't you?"

I feel like I have too. All those shadows, and the lights that dance around it... The silence in the midnight hour, pale lights shivering... Is like they are calling me somewhere, somehow... I just can't say no, I just can't stay...

"Why? Will you come back?"

I don't know. But don't worry about it...

"That's not possible..."

Come... Share this night with me! Tell me, are the stars still falling? How much they shine? Does it hurt your eyes? I wish I could watch it with you... Be my eyes!

"They are falling, in neverending darkness... The shadows embrace it all... Does't hurt... But I wish I couldn't see it..."

Why?

"So I could lie... And it would neverend, the day would never come burn my eyes, and you would never leave me again."

Silly. Those are fallen stars, the day can't stop them. And besides, you NEVER lie to me.

"How do you know?"

I am blind, but I ain't dumb. You know something? Sometimes I wish I could dive into the night, swim across the dark sky, dancing around the fallen stars... But when I am with you like this, I feel like I am already there, doing it all... Funny isn't it?

"No..."

Are you crying?

"..."

Do you think that the fallen stars, are the teardrops of the night? Maybe the sky is just so sad that it cries light to us?

"Why would it be sad?"

I don't know... Maybe it miss someone or something...

"Maybe."

I can feel it, the stars coming down, the shadows breathing slowly, waiting for the day to come... Make a wish on that falling star! For both of us! A teardrop of light, and you'll have your hearts desire...

"You're making that up..."

No I am not. It's a fallen star promise. A teardrop of light away, is your hearts desire. Do it for us, okay? I want to see your wishes come true...

"You can't see."

Maybe not like you... I wonder... Did you made your wish already? Come on, before the last one falls!

"I wish you would come back to me..."
