They're not Airplanes
If I could use a wish
Up in the night sky
I see comets streaking by
Teardrops far up high
***
Made of ice and dust
I wish upon them, I thrust
My hopes that I trust
***
I wish You were here
The sky sheds stars with my tears
You’ve been gone for years
***
On this ball of dirt
You left me behind, waiting
My heart aches from hurt
