Poems for Her

to the moon that i love

I wish i was a star
'cause literally
you're the closest
to heaven that i'll ever be

I want to reach you
no matter the distance
yet all i can ever do
is to sit here and gaze

I yearn to hug you
the way some
dumb clouds somehow
does but i couldn't

And i tell you—

You're almost ethereal
at the simplest form
you can be—naturally

And honestly
you're my finest definition
of an eternal beauty.
