The seasons blended together still as if i've fallen head first into a daydream. But some nights, i'd place our fate in the hands of a star, and whisper words of forever. Praying my answer was You.
There was enchantment in You. Yet still, I held little hope in our forever. For what is wished for while dreaming, is long lost amongst the stars found only on the darkest of nights.
My uncertainties were hidden in the shadows of the night and clouded every thought of You. But there, locked between the breath of two stars, silent and still, I chased away my dreams. Convinced that nothing could last forever.
I am Alice now, and my rabbit hole leads into forever. As mysterious as the night so I close my eyes and dream. And I am suddenly re-immersed in You. As the hands that chase the day stand still I am misplaced again, amongst the wishes lost in stars.
I have traveled through time, chased unknown stars and stared into the face of forever. But as my mind's portraits flashed by me, my life stood still. For everything was overcome by the night and all I could see was You. Mirroring back at me all my hopes and dreams.
At first, I'd thought I was dreaming, (creativity tends to flourish within the stars.) But I could see it in You, The smallest glimpse of forever, Gleaming in your eyes late that night, And I knew my faith held tightly still.
I am still immersed in the wishes of my dreams, where the symphonies of night hold stars that shine into forever, and are reflected back in You.
