Starry Sky

Dr Seuss' quote-
You know you are in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.



Starry sky



As I lie on my bed
restless and sleepless,
Staring at night sky
lending twinkle to stars,
Amazed at the beauty
way they look so bright,
Those dreams of longing
vanish in insomnia,

Maybe I am in love,
maybe I was out of sight.

As I conquer my desires
yearnings reach an end,
His love in my heart
pounces to pretend,
Dreams turned to reality
sleep no more fascinates,

Maybe I am in love
and I was out of sight then.


Eyes that once sobbed dry
now the tears glitter,
On every tender blink
I fear losing these pearls,
Heart that stops awhile
and regains its flair,
Hymn that darkness sings
the starry sky enchants.


Maybe I am in love,
When dreams put to reality,
Who bothers about sleep ?
