Stars In Her Eyes
stars in her eyes, fleeting…her broken heart
like confetti - the century’s storm, smart.
Ben didn’t rush - the Gordian knot tight.
He cuts grief’s umbilical cord - Kate’s knight
pinkens her cheeks, pastes back her smile. the stars -
Kate’s crowd surfing, beyond clouds, above the scars.
