the moon has heard my words,
carefully picked to describe each and every beauty of yours.

the stars have been used for counting,
every single reason why i think that you belong here.
holding so much meaning, and you’d never know.

the galaxies have heard my hurt,
quiet sobs heard by those who are out there listening.
hearing just how much i long to be with you again.

the oceans have envied me,
having my eyes leak more tears of missing you than all the water of the seven seas.

the papers have held my words,
written to you just how we used to.
holding everything we wanted to say but couldn’t.

the poems have held my feelings,
sitting in my drafts waited to be read by others and for them to know.

my darling we're forever
because they all say it's so.
