I once wrote of stars,
to forget them, in love,
as they too once forgot,
and abandoned the sky
leaving the night blind
I once thought love a curse,
a beauty shadowed,
a glass heart shattered
and left in pieces
to shine in the morning dew
When I no longer looked to the sky,
had forgotten the stars,
and left myself blind,
weary of the darkest hour,
I found you in midnight
I found you in the abandoned sky
and eternity of our nights
I no longer needed to search the sky
you brought its stars to me on upturned palms
I gave you my heart
that you might hold it amongst them
And that we may find eternity
and eternity will be our midnight
