Untitled #3
I stood in the night
Single cigarette sizzling towards the tremble of my fingers
I miss you.
Stars dance in the haze of teared eyes
As the moth flirts in the amber hum of a distant street light.
I focus on its centralised nebula
Its burst of heated shades, its distant sun beams.
Looking down upon the single star in my hand.
This is where I would pass to you, for the final breath.
Yet you are only in the stars.
Within a sky we have prayed towards so many times.
I love you.
For even without you,
You are forever within me.
My third attempt at writing straight to the page, without pre plan or edit. Acting upon the emotion I feel at this moment
