Dec 11, 2018
my cheeks flushed a pale pink,
what a feeling it was keeping
you close to me initially,
the sun would set before us
and your eyes became black,
pushing my last cigarette into the dirt
i realized my heart was intact,
as the moon raised slowly
sacred words emerged from my lips,
quivered nonchalantly when we kissed,
everything went silent and so did you
i didn’t know what i had gotten into,
looked up to align the stars-
the path i took to you
but the world had gone dark
and the stars did too.
