Be my neon light

A romantic scribble Originally published in my blog 'Into the Forgotten'

You are a sea of neon lights

flooding city streets,

your waves of brilliance 

igniting the night

like a thousand shooting stars.

I'm just a face in the window,

watching you,

wishing for you. 

But every morning

you disappear into

seas of blaring city noise.

I catch you throwing off your mask,

and weaving through 

crowds of indifference and ignorance,

and you're shrinking

into just a face

among a thousand others.

Everyone sees fluorescent lights,

how many see your tears at night?

Everyone hears the lyrics talk,

how many hear your soft steps walk?

Everyone knows the superstar,

how many know your beating heart?

Let me see your tears at night,

I'll kiss them away with all my might.

Let me hear your soft steps walk,

I'll align my timid feet to yours.

Let me know your beating heart,

I'll love its every broken part. 

Even when you're just a face,

I'll still see you as a thousand shooting stars

igniting night and day.

Even when their heads are turned,

I'll still be trying to catch your eyes

with mines.

Even when the wishes are spent, 

I'm still be wishing on your fallen star,

for you and your heart.

Author's Note

Sorry that I haven't been publishing any works here for so long!
I was thinking of what to write, and I just kinda spontaneously wrote this poem. Please tell me what you think! Any comments will be greatly appreciated :)
