it was a night full of stars,
we lay there quietly,
gazing, staring,
and wishing

the air was still,
peaceful and tranquil,
everyone was awaiting
for that moment

just then,
it flew past,
quick as a flash of lighting

our eyes, sparkled with tears
which made its way down our cheeks,
unhurriedly

hands clasped tight together,
eyes shut,
entering a world of darkness
filled with only genuine smiles
and dearest hopes

it was a night full of stars
