I polished the stars for you.
Now, it's time to polish your shoes.
The cosmos is indifferent. You, however, are not.
Nash Corax Apr 2020
January came, she kissed my cheek
Under the moon, filled with mystique
Late of the season, I braided her hair
In the light of dusk, I embraced her there
And when midnight came, I named the stars
Twinkling after her in the latest of hours
Hundreds of billions-little lights in the skies
Each one reflecting her incandescent eyes
Roses are maroon; violets are grey
Enchantment is purple; though sounding cliche
She acts like summer and walks like rain
Excellent and exquisite; an elegant arcane
Long after August and the months of -ber
Unraveled whatsoever lies inside of her
Carving a smile across her face
I waited until November days
Next I held her hands--soft and warm
Quiescence overcame my repugnant form
Unctuous--for times I was
It's what she can and what she has
Not but only gleaming little lights
Inside her yet also morose little frights
Come December and January again
Oh I kissed her cheeks and then
That... was it
A hidden name because you are now just a story I can't tell anymore

— The End —
