Shh, the Stars Are Talking

The stars have called me…
And whispered in my ear:
“Why stay in…
when the lights of her eyes haven’t ceased shining?
Shining as bright as the stars in heaven,
And as unique as the snowflakes the clouds send down…
Quiet…and alone she stands,
Fondling with her hair strands…
Glancing at the moon with a vibrant gentle face…
…watch as she sighs and slowly closes her eyes 
With a tear streaming down her face…
Alone she stands…
Become her cape and keep her warm,
Hold her close and tell her you won’t let go…
Whisper in her ear and tell her:  “I am here…”
If she asks what has brought you here, ask her this:
“If our meeting wasn't because of fate, then why have we met?”
But if she insists…
Whisper to her…
”The stars called out to me… asking me to guide you home,
Back to the heavens where you have left your wings…”
That I’m sure she’ll believe…”
I swear…that’s what the stars said…
And…alone here you stand…
Fondling with your hair…
Gazing at the moon…with a tear mark on your face…
…Pardon me miss…but you seem to have left your wings back home…
