the stars used to loom over
our love
smiling down at our
interlocking hands
""""""""""""""""""""
the end of the summer
will be the death of us
I once said
as we walked
down the dark
starlit path
was this love?
or something far less
""""""""""""""""""""
the stars used to loom over
our love
and if they could
they would
but that was years ago
