I stare above Straying away in the lonely gloom Watching rockets patter higher Touching the shining moon One speaks out to the other Swinging without grief Far from what to come
"Why do you fear the stars?" They call down to me
My shoulders sag Though a smile grew Each star reminds me of you.
With color shone in his eyes Of darkness and light Deep in twilight They blossomed like asteroids Plummeting to Earth Tiny black holes twirling From the spheres of his sight He saw the world with magic Sparking from his palms It was extraordinary To be that love Knew no such limits Like the color in his eyes
A message to the first person who leaks into my mind every nightfall and daybreak, who still manages to curve a smile across my face when all I want to do is drown.
In the darkest days and brightest nights, You're there for me when no one is. Your smile a cure for every ache. As the war continues, You're the safe haven I turn to.
