a comet's death, lonely they die
like hopes that fade, all
beliefs that wane, quickly
in the blink of an eye
I once believed in fairy tales
of a savior prince, the wall he scales
rhymes once written long ago
they're not true, this I now know
fantasy in gory detail
the moon rises high in velvety night
twinkling stars enhance my plight
do I look for happily ever after?
braving disaster after disaster
trying to rid this stage fright
silent stars shoot across dark sky
