vague

the sky

i stare into the dark,
into the sky, really, but it's
not what it once was;
nothing is.

then i turn to
look for you
but i can only see
an empty spot
next to me

so again, i look into
what once was the sky

with the urge
to reach for
something
someone
that i will
never get back

because now
kind of suddenly
i can see a star
in the dark sky

and i know that
even if you're not here
and never will be
anymore

you're still looking
down at me

just like i am looking
into the sky
that's now not so
dark anymore
