North Star

The sun is bright today, placed somewhere in the baby blue-eyed sky.
A mixed wind, smelling of fire and hickory smoke with warmth swirled
inside slap the earth and her inhabitants.
And I can’t help to think of you.
I see the words you said and the actions you did
masquerade as paper thin clouds that drift slowly through my mind.
Stranded am I, in crazy dreams, wishes and hopes. No matter how
hard I try, I am not free.
The wind hits me but I am strong and still.
The sun embraces me yet I am still cold and frosty.
The leaves encircle me but I am unable to touch and feel them.
The trees swing yet I am blind and deaf.
As your words shocked and stunned me, now the memories
are blurry and forgotten. I wonder, did I forget on purpose to
prevent misunderstanding and heartbreak?
Probably, I hear myself answer. After all you made a big
impact on me like a meteorite the size of Texas hitting the
Earth. And after all you made me feel real good even if you
didn’t try.
After all that is said and done,
After all that is laughed and cried,
After all that is fought and won,
After all that is given and taken,
After all that is real and imaginary,
I will always keep a place for you
in my sky. You’ll be my north star
shining so bright so
I’ll never be lost at night.
