Falling star

I was alone
I searched for love
High and low
I asked 
But
They said Love was a star
There
But not
Here
So i built
A 
Ladder
To climb to the top
I climbed
Wood splintered off
Slices, tearin
Tearin my flesh apart
The crimson Falling
I stretched 
And strained
Reached out 
Grabbed a star
Fire sluiced through my veins
Burning me till
It fell 
Falling like my blood
Alone
I went home, broken
Alone
Empty
I searched for the star
I searched for years
Till I saw it
A girl, there for me
Yet I never looked
So i tell my children 
When a star falls love is found
