When I look up into the night sky,
I feel a sense of longing.
When I gaze up into the heavens,
I feel something deep, down within my soul.
I feel as if I've once soared through the universe.
I feel as if I've seen the distant explosions of color
and sprinkled stardust beyond our horizon.
I feel as if I've seen the far-off galaxies
and mysterious worlds.
It all seems so familiar
and maybe it's the ancient wisdom
tucked down in our DNA that knows its point of origin.
Our very atoms were once a part of something
much larger than we can imagine.
Our souls are made of glittery stardust
and maybe that's why we always
find ourselves looking up into
the great unknown.

I can never forget that first moment I saw you
after the six years of being away from you.
The moment I saw your silhouette
in the window,
I knew my life was forever changed.
The way the sun shined upon you
was like magic.
It was like seeing an angel.

There may be distance between us now,
but I just want you to know that I miss you very much.
You are the person I think of
when I go on morning walks.
You are the person I think of
when I see the sun peeking through the blinds.
You are the person I think of
when I hear a mocking bird outside my window.

It is you. It was always you.

You never really get over it. You just simply learn to live with what has happened and how it has changed you. Now that I think about it, I don't mind the way I've changed. I don't want to go back to they way I was. I was weak. But now, I'm stronger than I've ever been. I see life in a new light. I see more beauty and I've learned so much in the past couple months. I've learned about myself and who I'm meant to be. I've learned to deal with life and the unknown things it throws at me. I admit, I may have some weak moments, but it's a part of life. At times, I may forget who I am, I may feel lost in a sea of people. But, I always find my way back to happiness and that's what's important. Just know that things will be okay.
