Homeless with stars

by [She.Falls.Asleep]   Mar 30, 2005


I stared up at the darkened sky,
Watched the clouds rush on by,
I stared in silence all around,
Up high, Down to the ground,
I was cold, I have no home,
The stars are the things I like to call my own,
They keep me company each lonely night,
And warm me with hope from the winds bitter bite,
There's no one out on the streets, It's late,
Hunger takes me over, It's been so long since I ate,
It's been a while since a penny fell at my feet,
It's been a while since I heard a happy beat,
Everything I hear just seems so slow,
It makes me feel so down and low,
See I have no place, I have no home,
I have no where I can call my own,
Just the place on the corner where I stay each day,
And try to get money in each and every way,
I ran away for a fairytale, To find a love that's true,
Yet I found no one, I never found you,
Now I sit on the street, And stare straight ahead,
And I have newspapers for my uncomfy bed,
I make a wish as I stare up at a star,
I'm going to hold that hope no matter how far,
Far away that star may be,
Maybe someday it will reach my desperate plee,
Hope is all I have left right now,
It's the one thing I'll keep, That is my vow,
When I opened my eyes, That one star was now two,
I silently cried to my family...where are you?
