Stargazer
Ysa Pa May 2015
Dear little stargazer
Please look at me
I'm a star too
Can't you see?

Oh little stargazer
What are you looking for
Am I not enough?
Why must you want more?

Poor little stargazer
You seem down
Trust in me
I'll wipe away that frown

Tired little stargazer
I am here for you
And I promise that
I'll never leave too

Sweet little stargazer
Have a little faith
You have amazing talents
That no one can ever take

Listen to me stargazer
Learn to be content
With everything you have
For you they were all sent

My dear stargazer
The only thing I wish you to be
Is you to look at the mirror
And be happy with what you see
And I came to realize that all these common eyes of brown ever wanted was to gaze upon the marvelous sight of you.
For a time my only concern was the vast cosmos,
and my mind attempted constantly to comprehend it.
But had the foolishness finally fled from my heart?
It posed as the wise one when it turned my focus to you.
And I fell for the sun's rays in the depth of your eyes
and concluded that I was interested only in the constellations formed from the freckles scattered on your cheeks.
The only space that fascinated me was the space existing between your fingers.
Yes, I assumed that my senseless heart had regained its wit.
Little did I know.
For once a stargazer, always a stargazer,
and my heart had become a fool for the universe in you.

City lights above
Piercing through the darkest night
I don't want to sleep
