A wish upon a star.. Written in 1992.


A wish upon a star
A Poem by Coyote Poetry
" Old dreams cannot fade away. "

A  wish upon a star…

 

Every night before I close my eyes.


 I whisper your name.

 

I make a wish to kiss your lips.


To feel the heat of your body.

 

I sent you a prayer.


A prayer you have found happiness.

 

I held you so tightly once.


But I saw the loneliness.


The hunger for the road in your eyes.

 

My wandering Angel was dying and


I drove you to the airport.

 

I watched as you flew away from me.


I whispered I would wait for you.

 

I knew when you set a wild animal free.


They will  never come back.

 

I drink the tequila now.


I run down Big Sur beaches yelling your name.

 

Sweet name to my heart.

 

I sit by the Monterey bay.


After the tequila killed all my senses.

 

I dream I can see you dancing naked on the beach.


Whispering to  me.
” Life is to be lived. Don’t wallow in sadness.”
 

You told me once you love me more than life..


 I will never leave you.

 

A sweet love can create a prison and a paradise.

 

I close my eyes and


I see my beautiful beautiful lady wandering the world.

 

I wish to have your hand in mine.


To take  long walks on the Monterey sand..

 

I’m waiting on the Big Sur beach and


I will  wish on the first star in the sky.

 

To be able to look into your eyes.


Tell you I love you.
