Last Gaze

’twas our hearts met
rays of city lights
but only we noticed
lights from distant stars.

dazzling came to my arms,
binds the warmth of love
‘ til you leaned on my shoulder
speaking beacons of hope
to a lover, soon be lost.

we’ ve felt deep
to where it leads,
future holds up high
uttered promises —
you never said you knew
‘ twas the stars would fall.

i’ ll be back,
i promised to the star
but only the stars knew
i’ll watch the moon,
you’ll watch the sun
we never knew —
’twas the last gaze then.
