if the stars carried all the stories in the world
I think i’d be most interested
in the ones that tell me of you when you were six
when you’re stuffed monkey was your only friend
and the stories of when you were ten
when you realized you liked a girl with brown pigtails
and you picked out the best flower in the field
only to have it thrown at your feet
if the stars carried all the stories in the world
i’d like to listen to them
with you laying by my side
telling me that Andromeda held all your secrets
and Orion held all your desires
and that the best star of all
was laying next to you
on a blanket in the dew covered grass.
