It’s been months
since I saw the twinkle
in your eyes,
hypnotizing in the most
innocent sense.
Nothing has seemed
to ever shine so bright,
though I have searched
endlessly.
The only thing
that has ever come close
are the numerous
glowing stars in the
silent night sky.
I only wish that it didn't
pain me to lay out at night
and admire them
for I can’t help but think;
we’re looking at the same stars,
but I use these stars
to satisfy the craving
for something as
brilliant as your
twinkling eyes,
and you look at them
without a single fleeting
thought of myself
and the days
we once shared.
