Do you remember the stars?



You told me to remind you about the stars.

You said that if you ever forgot, I was to remind you of the stars and it would all be OK.

You told me to remind you of how you felt that night.

How nothing else mattered, and you could have been falling off the edge of forever and you would not of cared.

You told me to remind you of how small you felt looking up at the stars, but with me by your side you felt safe.... you felt secure.

You felt like the sky was watching over you...protecting you!

And then you told me not to be afraid anymore...

For your tears were not tears of sadness, but happiness...a reflection of how you felt inside.

And that we were gonna be OK.

For tonight the sky was ours

We were finally together.

Please tell me that you remember the stars?

Beautiful and much enjoyed!

In the midst of winter,
I found there lives within me..
An invincible summer.
