A Thousand Little Stars

 

All alone my fingers tingle

like a thousand little stars 

are resting on their tips

I always knew 

a world of possibility 

was in the palm of my hand

Like the stars that burn unseen

Under a blanket of daylight

But when our hands meet 

I feel their potential

A slow burning, as the sky comes 

Alive when night falls, I fall 

in love with you.

The evening sky reveals:

It is in our darkest moments

Vulnerability alights

Compassion, understanding,

And unconditional love.

xoxo, L
