When I gaze at the stars

I gaze at the stars,

and it aches my heart,

and floods my head

thinking why we fell apart.

 

When I watch the skies,

it gets grey in my eyes —

thinking maybe… maybe a star would I see

as beautiful as you are.

But none pass by,

and I think why we fell apart.

 

I lie the days in bed;

through the nights I cry,

as around me

the dreams of you fly.

Thy beauty, thy smile, thy laugh —

I recall all of them fine

until the thousandth time.

 

Then the moment comes

when I lose the count of my breath

and a beat in my heart.

And then I don’t beg you…

and the distance between us

isn’t so far.
