Watch the stars 

as if they were people.

Watch as they dissappear

and never come back.

Watch how they say 

they are different from

the last star you saw.

Trust the stars 

with your darkest secerts,

your grreatest desires

and hope that

they don't take it away from you.

Watch the stars 

as if they were human.

Watch them because

maybe,

just maybe

they will all dissappear

from your life.

Watch the stars

for the one who you can trust

for the one who will save you

from any disaster in the world.

Watch the stars 

as if you could trust them.

But in reality 

there is only one star

that will always be there

when ever other star

has completely dissappeared

from our world.

Watch the stars 

because one day............

your life could depend on it.
