eternity | vk

twenty three

if i told you

that i loved you

a million times over,

once for each star in the sky,

would you look at me

the way you did before?

it was as if

the sun was in my palm,

as if the sky behind me

was set ablaze.

it was as if

the earth ceased to turn

and the sun ceased to shine,

and it was only us

and the pounding

of our hearts.

we were one;

we were eternal.
