She was a star his guiding light and he chased her glowing blindly, Every night he sat in darkness with his eyes fixed on her radiance, convinced the day had nothing to compare So when she left his night was lightless and the dark expanse eternal, and he lit himself some candles but their flicker couldn't last, Each one he snuffed to turn and face his star's remains. But then day found him and the sunbeams came to kiss his shrunken frame, And for moments bathed in daylight they stood tall and hand in hand, and he grew and almost found a glow his own. But he couldn't see the sky for the stardust in his eyes, Every night he ground it in in h

When our love was young it grew tall and strong like a fruit tree And I rosy and fat from its fruit When the autumn came and our fruits were cast to rot upon the ground I gathered them Buried them deep Sealed their casket and refused to look inside Through the winter I barely knew of their existence but for the pain of their festering But over time their fermenting matured their sweetness into wine Which I draw up now to enjoy what still remains The pain has passed and I can taste the mellowed memory of our summer Come join me in this new year Sit Sip from our story Drink of our love.

My arms are wrapped around me, trying to hold it all together but only your arms will do. It's 4am and I just need you to tell me I've been wrong and it's just me you want beside you and when you look in my eyes it's not her you want to see. It's 5am and I can't keep crying.
