Do they gaze back?

Do you think the stars gaze
When their sun turns into night
Do they look outward through the haze
Looking for the tiny dots of light
Do you think they ask the same question
A hundred times before
Do they wait for the answers
Outside their bedroom door
Do you think they can see me
A million miles away
Do you think they day dream
Like me, every single day
If the energy of the universe
Flows through us all
Do you think they can feel my desires
Do you think they’ll answer my call
Maybe I’m just being greedy
A little selfish in my ways
But I really hope they can feel me
I hope they can help take this pain away
