It Was The Stars Poem by Ben Partenay

It Was The Stars



it was the stars you
were looking at when
you said "even they don't
last forever"
and something about
how none of us
will
and the cynic in you
walked to your door
and unlocked it,
went inside
went to bed
with dreams of
everything that
wouldn't come true, but
the poet in you
walked a ways
beneath dying balls
of light,
beneath
a sky dark
with sins
and breathed
regurgitated
air
