My Star Shines

My head turned up side down.
Shooting sporadically to nowhere, 
and aiming at somewhere.

I shoot a glimpse, 
i thought I hit the target,
but the bullet shattered the air, 
and falling down like fireworks.
No image, no object, no subject. 
I did not lose sight.
My strength ignited a second shot, 
and I got the air.
It touched the sky, 
it touched the star, 
and it touched my soul.

I saw the sky rowdy, 
I saw the star shinning, 
and my soul moving.
I made a step of faith to hold the star. 
Two step forward, one step success.
She beckoned on me, I doubled my step.
Like the man in the moon, 
I floated with oxygen, 
and gathered my strength...
To hold the descending star, 
and hold on to her,
Never to loose her again.
