Wishing on the stars.

good : )



Don't let go ,

just hold me tight .

Kiss me softly ,

by the candle light .

Turn up the music ,

this is your song .

Come close baby ,

this is where you belong .

Do you want to dance ?

I love the way you move ,

give me a chance ,

I will improve !

As time goes by ,

and moves so fast .

I'd like it to stop with you ,

so I could make it last .

Make a wish every day ,

so I can hope it will come true.

I'm sending Love your way ,

and kisses just for you .

You are my everything ,

more than words can say .

I wish you never left ,

I wish You were with me everyday

Thanks for the reviews!

i was reading over it, i can't believe how much punctuation i left out.

Oh well, hopefully i'll do better next time.

Thank you for the tips.

The sunset drips over the hill;

A blaze of red, orange and pink,

I think this is a lovely way to begin a poem, and this is the type of thing that I like so I love it however, I'm not sure if a dripping sunset agrees with 'a blaze'. I also added a semicolon. I'm really annoying and fussy about stuff like that.

Silhouetting the trees.

A bird flies in the distance,

Trying, trying to get home,

But it is not this she is waiting for,

Not why she is there, so she waits and waits.

I like your use of repetition hear in 'trying, trying etc.' and 'waits and waits'. Perhaps change 'flies' to 'glides' or 'soars'. No particular reason - just a suggestion

Still as a statue,

Until the last flash of gold disappears

Until the sky is dark as ink.

Pinpricks of light materialize,

Dancing their path over the world,

Until they are tranquil once more.

Again, I like your repetition ('until'). Maybe you could make the line 'still as a statue' better (not sure how). You could change it to something like 'still; statue -like'. mm. I wanted to write 'statuesque' until I realised that it actually doesn't mean 'ike a statue' (i looked it up).

When she is sure that all are there,

She closes her eyes.

She closes her eyes and thinks,

“I want to reach the stars,

I want to get there someday.

I want to be anything,

I want to see anything -

I will reach the stars"

Repetition again! You managed to use it all the way through which is very clever

I have nothing to suggest for this bit (it's my favourite bit) but I have added some punctuation, although I don't know how you mean it to be read so I am probably wrong.
She stays for a moment,

Drinking in the last few magic moments,

Then opens the window,

And crawls back inside.

Lovely ending! The first line of this bit doesn't scan properly the way I read it, but perhaps if you got rid of 'in'or even the word 'magic'. although, I do realise that you may have written it like that on purpose so I'm sorry!

hope this was ok!

But it is not this she is waiting for, When you say 'she,' I got a little confused, because at first I thought you were talking about the bird. Are you talking about the bird, or about the girl watching this? Clarify.
Not why she is there, so she waits and waits.

When she is sure that all are there, Do you mean all of the stars...?
She closes her eyes.
She closes her eyes and thinks, I don't think the repetition here is particularly important, but if you like it, it's not a big deal.
“I want to reach the stars,
I want to get there someday,
I want to be anything,
I want to see anything;
I will reach the stars.”
