stars | it's fiction time (iii.)

i sat

i watched

i counted the stars

alone, when my heart was heavy

i sat

gazing through an open window

i watched the people pass

they're nothing like the stars

i sat

i watched

and counted the stars

that night i saw you pass

you whistled, carefree

the wind was cool

the air was light

and i smiled

all was well

i sat

and watched

as you pass again

but you stopped and turned

pushed along by the wind of fate

you saw me and smiled

frank, and genuine

beautiful

something i had never felt

blew along that breezy cool night

you asked

i blushed

but said yes all the same

what did you know of the girl you saw

who had nothing to hold on to but the stars?

you climbed up

and sat by me

silence of the beautiful kind

filled the air

now we sit

we watch

we count the stars

together, when our hearts are heavy

we laugh, we cry

more beautiful silence fills the air

the world stands still

but the stars shine on
