the stars always reminded her of love
how loves eyes would shine when it spoke of the things it loved
how loves eyes would shine when it looked at her

the stars only will shine in the dark and so this is where she was mistaken

where as she, the night sky
beautiful in all her deep darkness
love finding its light in her

the stars always reminded her of love
how loves eyes would shine when you spoke of the things it loved, over her
how loves eyes would shine when it looked at her as if she was owned

and that's where she was mistaken

she didn't have to be the darkness of the night
she was the sun.

and love could still remind her of the stars, but the stars can no longer shine if the darkness is not accessible.

though she thought of herself as night, she found herself being the light of day that outshone the stars.
