Can't forget the trembling child wheeled into the hospital after the bomb blasts.
A wish upon a faint star.

little star
dim star
last star of the night
standing still
by the waning moon
grant me a wish
make it go or
make it mine
the pain
i see in his starry eyes
Tears.
the trembling in his limbs
Fears.
too harsh for his fragile soul
grant me a wish
last star of the night
make it go or
make it mine
