I stared at the lucent beam of the stars, time seeped of all value, frozen like- a deer caught in the headlights of cars, though eternity passed, my eyes affixed- on those specks of limitless lights afar. O' Stars, your name escaped with empty air, each breath an assault by those who see- but could never look to understand the lure, like the heavenly aroma of honey to a bee- that nestles in the comfort of a hidden hive under the bumbled branches of a tree. I fumbled a glance to the celestial bodies- discovered the smile you left me last night debossed across my memory of warmth- escaped from the only visible light that shared the same blackened canvas between all that settled as wrong and right. I closed my eyelids, reopened them like- A glass window slid to remove the fog that overlaid the transparent crystal and with first sight my eyes as cogs projected enchantment geared into orbs accompanied by crickets and howling dogs. Craters, comets, cosmic creations cast- a vivid image of an established universe coated in beauty with ink that's colourfast, and as eternity drone on, the light emitted- forever remains seen pivoted within the past.

Your face in the stars
I stared at the lucent beam of the stars, time seeped of all value, frozen like- a deer caught in the headlights of cars, though eternity passed, my eyes affixed- on those specks of limitless lights afar. O' Stars, your name escaped with empty air, each breath an assault by those who see- but could never look to understand the lure, like the heavenly aroma of honey to a bee- that nestles in the comfort of a hidden hive under the bumbled branches of a tree. I fumbled a glance to the celestial bodies- discovered the smile you left me last night debossed across my memory of warmth- escaped from the only visible light that shared the same blackened canvas between all that settled as wrong and right. I closed my eyelids, reopened them like- A glass window slid to remove the fog that overlaid the transparent crystal and with first sight my eyes as cogs projected enchantment geared into orbs accompanied by crickets and howling dogs. Craters, comets, cosmic creations cast- a vivid image of an established universe coated in beauty with ink that's colourfast, and as eternity drone on, the light emitted- forever remains seen pivoted within the past.
