Waking Dream

I lie awake below the moon
beneath the starry skies
and wonder how they could compare
to your two starry eyes

Your heart beats fast right next to mine
a calming melody
our fingers find their counterparts
and fit so perfectly

then suddenly my eyes fly wide,
awake from dreams divine
I sigh, relieved, because your hand
is still there holding mine
