the stars reflect in her lifeless eyes,

can't she see that they scream her name?

she covers the freckles that dot her tanned skin,

doesn't she know how they resemble the constellations she adores?

she spends all her time watching the sky,

i spend all my time admiring her passion for things

as out of the world as she is.

she tells me that she wishes she could shine like the stars,

how do i tell her that she already does?
