A Sign of Life [poem]


Huddled in the corner
Waiting for a sign of life.
It’s very quiet down here
But now I’m starting to wonder
If it was really worth it.
I wish I could be like the stars,
So high in the inky black sky
Defying the laws of gravity.        
But now stars are falling
In these hours of darkness,
Like fading tears of light.
Flashing before my eyes,
Their beauty shining one last time.
Promise me I won’t fade away,
Like the falling stars of night.
Let me believe I’ll never die,
Promise me I’ll shine.
