Stars shining as jewels
Against dark velvet cloth
Teasing;
Forever out of reach.
Elusive;
yet inviting
Winking;
shining faces seem to be saying
"You cant touch me"
And not in one million years
Could I ever hope I would.
Glimpses of a passionate moon
Peer through as misty clouds part
Revealing the futile attempt
To hide the black hole in my heart.
Falling stars like teardrops
Through the night sky
Till the ends of time
Numb feelings sublime.
