Star Crossed Strangers

When the cold wind blows

And the soft music plays

When the night sky speaks

Then, will you stay?

Maybe not for a lifetime

Maybe not even for a fortnight

But just enough time

For you to become mine

We’ll share stories under stars

And lace fingers in the dark

We’ll kiss and tell secrets

And finally, we’ll exchange hearts

Keep mine safe and sound

Because it’s heavier than you know

And I’ll sing songs to yours

Of two lovers that felt like home

And someday if our paths cross again

I’ll be exactly where you left me

But if you never are to come around

Just know, we were always meant to be.
