Fleeting sun, daytime ending
brings on the night.
Open my eyes, see the starlight.
beauty and spleandor.
Diamonds fixed in the sky,
sparkling wonders of the abyss.
Things to see, but never touch.
Daylight comes, and again I sleep.
All the spleandor of the night
moves along to bring the light.
With eyes closed, I dream of you.
I've no care for the passing hours,
Sparkling starlets decorate my dreams.
Slipping through the beautiful scenes

I see you.

This world which I have created
revolves around you.
I reach out my hand
to try and touch you.
but I can't;  for you
are just like the stars.

Oh Jason, I know all too well how you feel! My dear friend, I hope to hear differently soon! I'm sorry that this person is so out of reach, but maybe it's for the better, everything happens for a reason my dear. As you like to call it fate, I just call it destiny. Keep up the faith my friend! Love Always~*~Jess~*~

I love the analogy in the poem...the whole thing builds itself towards the last lines where anyone reading becomes captivated.  great job...again

Wow... this is beautiful! I love the metaphor between your dream and the stars. I can relate to this very well. Keep up the good work!

Jason,
Wonderfully penned. I stand in awe of your grace. How can you ever presume that I am better than you? I laugh at your insecure delusions. Step up to the pedestal you've put me on, you belong here.
