When I look up at the stars, I see you.
And it hurts.
They seem so far away,
Thousands of light years,
Millions of miles.
Untouchable.
They shine so bright,
Perfect and golden,
Burning and eternal.
Beautiful.
But only from a distance-
How are they up close?
Fading and falling?
Imperfect?
I can’t tell what I love;
Whether I love them
Or their glow from afar.
Removed.
When I look up at the stars, I see you.
And it hurts.

Sometimes I just wish you would miss me as well.
Sometimes it's nice to feel missed. Especially when you miss someone. Otherwise, it just hurts.

They thought I needed rehab,
Said this addiction of mine was bad.
Little did they know,
this drug kept me from losing myself.

A child of wind born innocence
chases butterflies to the edge,
gathering whispered weeds
of golden sheen,
singing a lone sparrow’s sonnet,
soaring beyond the cliff,
sending silver lined
cloud bound wishes
to mother earth,
waiting below

I am the ocean,

I am the sea,

There is a world inside of me.

The though of you, dances on my mind,
the way your beauty, is one of a kind,
I'd trade the whole world, just for a moment in time,
one perfect moment, where you would be mine
