do you remember my eyes?

you told me they were like stars,

too bright to ever die unseen.

you said when they burned out,

you would, too.

but I’m still alive.

and so are you.

so tell me…

did our love really die,

or was it never alive at all?

your body is tired

your mind, ruined

but your soul,

still pure

still beautiful

as ever.
