  I knew ever since I was a child
that I'm in love with the night.

I grew up daydreaming about Mars's
red planes and Venus's tepid touch.

I gushed when the sun and moon
touch at eclipse and uttered my

wish to a shooting star.

But never did I imagine that this
moment would come.

never did i foreseen that I
would feel such

loneliness towards the sky,

never did I imagine
myself envying her.

How could I not?

The night was full

of stars and moon;

yet my side was

empty of you.
