my prayer

by kelli bircket (Aries) - Not entered

through the window i watch a star.
i wish upon it as it falls so far.
i wish that your love would soon be mine,
as the twinkling light no longer shines.

 i go to bed and turn out the light.
thinking of you, teardrops i fight.
'cause i love you so much, but you don't see.
i pray a prayer that you'll too, love me...

   now i lay me down to sleep
   i pray my heart for him to keep.
   and in the morning, when i wake.
   i'll ask again for his heart to take.

 i dream a dream everynight.
hand in hand in the moonlight.
you hold me close and kiss me, too.
i wake up and i feel so blue.

 because i know it's just a dream.
a hopeless wish i know, it seems.
still, i hope and pray nightly.
that you would hold me so very tightly.

 will my prayer soon be heard?
or does god think it's too absurd?
i guess i'll wait, but everyday
i still will hope and i still will pray.
