I saw a shooting star
And I wished 2 meet death
I haven’t seen him yet
But I’m holding my breath
Almost seen him a few times
And I almost succeeded
It wasn’t something that I wanted
It was something that I needed
I felt so overwhelmed
I wasn’t in control of my own actions
2 many things in my head
Way 2 many dam distractions
When I made my wish
I hoped it that it would come true
Days passed by
But my hope never came through
In all of that time
I took it 2 reflect
I looked in the mirror
And tried 2 have some self respect
Now that I’m biding my time
I found a four leaf clover
Maybe it’s a surreal sign
That my life is not over
I plucked each clover
I die or I don’t
I came 2 a decision
And 2night I won’t
It sounds a little crazy
That I leave my life up 2 chance
But maybe this is time 4 me
So that I can advance
My bad thoughts find me again sometimes
But I remember the clover I had
So I keep that in mind
Whenever I am sad
Things at times seem so bizarre
And I still can’t believe
This started with a shooting star
