Mirrored Stares

Tracing constellations with our fingers
pointed up towards the twinkling sky

wishing for shooting stars to tumble down
so we could make wishes and wander

to the places where they crash landed

only to find that they have lived within us
Dreams that can't be seen, tasted, or touched

just entangled in the fibers of our hearts
each beat bringing them closer as we grow
kinder and gentler than we thought possible
as we fly kites under the shadows of the sun
tracing whispers of a love carved into stone

Knowing beauty lives behind mirrored stares
eyes meeting in the middle aligning souls
of perfect partners with their fingers interlaced
with bodies pressed together in warm embrace
knowing that a forest sometimes burns violently
only to recycle ash into mighty trees once more
