Shooting Stars

Shooting Stars

A Poem by Dakota Jean

My tears traced your collarbones today
And as I was watching them fall
They looked like little shooting stars
If I could have wished upon them
Maybe
Maybe we’d finally be happy

This reminded me of the final moments of a relationship after two people have realized how broken they've really become and made each other. Very powerful words and imagery you portray. We all have our wishes and hopes. Love is no fairytale...but we all must make the best of it.

This is amazing, the amount of emotion and meaning you have put into such a small amount of words is stunning. The meaning is so clear and you have used some very strong imagery that really evokes the readers emotions. I love this piece also because it is so relate-able, and i know this feeling very well. amazing work, I really like this! Keep it up xx

This was beautiful. Simplistic beauty demonstrating the final moments of a relationship. I found this very relatable, as I've had this exact scenario happen before.

This is such an amazing piece. Its so simply put and yet so thought provoking. i really loved the originality of comparing a teardrop to a shooting star. Well done.
