Scars in the sky
There are scars in the sky,
You sighed.
Then they must be invisible,
I mumbled.
Lift your head and close your eyes,
those were your confusing words,
stare at the sky,
and raise your hands to feel the cries not heard.
But my hands felt burning of a shooting star,
that carved through my heart an invisible scar.
