Stargazing

In my dreams, you seemed so far away,
as the night turned to day in the blink
of your eye. Words became actions
dismissed by the breath
you took in front of me.

Laughter left in the footprints of the stars,
left behind to gleam
as we stargazed in the fires
left untouched, so untouched.

Hidden passions flourished in the crinkles
around your nose, how it ignites
a dream within a dream. Prayers baptized
in the tears of your cry,
eyes that seemed awake in the dream
of your stare, left paralyzed in a moment
as eternity became truth.

An unspoken truth that sunk
to the bottom of our hearts within
the stare of your grasp.

In my dreams, you seemed so far away,
as the night turned to day in the caress
of your eye.
