In the Night

I lie awake and wish upon
The stars outside my window
As I lie alone with tears forming
In the corner of my eyes.
I hug my sheets tight in my arms
Being the only thing to hold on to
And wipe the tears now rolling down my cheeks
Being there's no one to take them away.
I lie and pray that there's still hope
Or wonder if it's just too late.
I imagine he's wishing on that same bright star
Wanting the same as me.
As I cry myself to sleep
A wonderful dream appears in my mind.
One of his face and beautiful brown eyes
And his touch that still lingers.
But I know that I must soon awake
As the pain forms once again
Leading me to another day
Of heartache.
