She sits alone in her room
Staring through her window
at the night sky
black as ink.
She sees a star up above
shining brightly in the heavens...
The warmest, most luminescent
star in the galaxy.
She thinks of her love, so wonderfully sweet,
who is so like that star, miles away...
She wonders if he is looking up at the sky
at that very moment
and seeing that very same star
and thinking of his love,
miles away...
He lays on the gra**,
listening to the nightingales' chorus.
He looks up at the jet black sky
and thinks of her soft glowing beauty.
He longs to see the girl
he left so far away,
To touch her innocent face,
and stroke her long dark hair.
They make the same wish together,
that they will soon be in each other's arms...
He reaches up and catches the pulsating light,
and she feels his love enveloping her.
She turns from the window
and nestles into her bed
with tears in her eyes,
and joy in her heart.
