I once sat upon a bench and listened to the stars,
To their many lives and their stories about ours.
One in particular really caught my ear,
A story about love, loss and fear.
About a girl who gave away all she had to give,
Until she was left empty and no longer wished to live.
Her memories were many and none of them were good,
Until another person came along when she thought they never could.
She shone like the sun, she brightened up the day,
She was like a warm breeze that blew the clouds away.
The story was of you and me and it’s still being told,
I’ll sit and listen again when I have grown old,
But until then remember this, those stars up in the sky,
They are all there watching as our days and nights go by.
