Bliss

My precious,

A few days ago, I wandered off to the terrace to miss you. I stared at the sky above me and saw two amazingly bright stars in perfect union. It transported me to the night of our first meeting. I had sat on the bench staring at the sky, with you facing me, looking at me with silent questions. I remember you asking me what was it that I was looking at. They were two stars far apart with none other in sight. I had told you that they were like us, up there and far apart. My words failed me then but when this sight unfolded the other night, it invoked a wave of emotion in me. I write this in joyful pain for I miss you.

beneathe the midnight shadows
Through the heavenly skies
Two stars hand in hand
Bathe in merry light
Lend me a blissful smile
in dismal tears of woe
Alight a joyless heart
with a wonderous glow
