A small story about stars

The sky was black

twinkling with stars lit up all around

like you were the only person who could see

their incandescent beauty

and you were surrounded

smothered

in them

and being eaten

by these stars that were

just so pretty

dazy

wanting you just as much

enveloping you in everything they are

because they can't feel you

wish they could

and have this endless desire

to reach out for you

but they can't

and you wish to do the same

 

to touch them in all they are

be as close as you can

breathing with them

feeling what they feel

becoming numb

with a love for them

an adoration so great

you'll think about it

time and time again

until you can't remember

what it felt like

to love and be loved

by the stars

and you'll just look up

and wait.
