=Stars=

I am but a distant star
dim and rarely seen
lost in a dazzling maze
on the clearest of nights
veiled by a broken haze
on smudged and clouded nights
like so many stars out there
we burn and burn undying
always seen but never noticed
strangers in a crowd
fallen raindrops
unrealized dreams
all vanish into obscurity
unless they meet
unless they hit
unless they pass
and so they pass but we remain
burning always burning
watching and waiting
for you to take us home
