Stars

I peered into the sky

and saw a billion stars

a billion pieces

of my heart

shining

those same stars

see you

and send to you

my heart

mon ami

our two worlds collide

to create a new

full of possibilities

imagined only in

our beautiful reality

like two distant polar points

destined to discover

how complete it really feels

to revolve around

the other

my yellow blends

so perfectly

with your ocean blue

together we become a green

neither one of us could ever be

if we remained alone

and so I yearn to mix with you

to become the color both

symbolizing love

and growth

if you could look

beyond these eyes

and see the soul that is inside

you would find it

intertwined

so tenderly with you

My Child

he crawled into

her open arms

and laid his head

upon her heart

enfolding him with

her love

she kissed his cheek

and softly hummed

a tender lullaby

he clung to her

until slowly

the trembling

began to cease

and rocking him

so lovingly

he drifted off

to peaceful sleep
