After Christmas you disappeared

As if your existence had been

Wiped off the face of the earth

But you were still here

Late April you decided to be reborn

And introduce the “new you”

You said sorry for not calling

Because you didn’t want me to get attached

Except the joke is on you

Because the day you said: “Hello”

Was the day the seams were already being sewn

You knew exactly as to what was happening

And you did absolutely nothing

You let me fall into the nothingness

With a hope that you’d be at the bottom to catch me

But you were nowhere in sight

And you let me crash

You let your shooting star

Crash and burn

Until she was nothing

I was once your shooting star

Because you made the wish
And I came true

And I thought it was fate

Since I wished for you too

As a child,

When a shooting star appears

One is told to make a wish and never tell

And later everything will soon come true

But they fail to tell you what a shooting star truly is

A shooting star is nothing but a comet

A rock falling down to earth

But given the speed it is traveling

It burns up within the atmosphere first

And maybe you already knew that

And that’s the reason why you weren’t

There to catch me

Because you knew I’d end up as nothing

And this ‘new you’ was never new

You were you all along

And I wished on the wrong shooting star.
