Shining orbs flash behind my lids,
as I listen to the melody you sing,
vigorously pounding my heart bleeds,
as it longs to have you here with me.
But we stand worlds apart,
a thousand oceans mark our path,
through all the waves and clashing tides,
I can see your eyes crinkle a little,
as your face lights up by your smile.
I can see the stars that shine in those eyes,
reflecting a girl who was once broken,
then she found her knight without an armour,
he saved her when she was utterly torn,
and now she hears the moon unfold,
the tale of two broken hearts,
as they make each other whole.
