That Star-Stricken Dream

Taking hold of a sunrise

Slipping through my fingertips

Warmth is what I desire

Deep longing for a smile

Oh what I crave

Candy sweetness unlike any other

Belly-laughing, doubled over

Or even the softest smile

Simple contentment

No smiles, but no worries or uncertainty

“What do you want to be when you grow up?”

Teacher I want to be happy

I’ll run, labored breathing

To keep that feeling close to me

I wish to be happy if for now

Because time isnt real to me

What matters is my living

I can worry about my future when it comes

I see that light calling

It’s hot burn inspiring me

I’ll do whatever I could for you
