Under The Stars

Submitted by ecope on December 7, 2007 - 13:10.

As I lay under the stars
Without the sound of cars
I think about the girl next to me
I don’t have to see
For her face imprinted in my thoughts
Her touch hoping for lots
In the grass we lay
Wishing we could every day
Time passes without thought
Bugs fly free uncaught
Thoughts unsaid
Constantly being fed
With feelings that teach
Understood without words or speech
Under the star filled sky
Unable to do anything but lie
On the fluffy green grass
Like a cloud that will never pass
