Thursday, December 10

I stare at the sky trying to count the stars,
Started over a hundred times by now.
I look to my heart trying to count the scars,
Wondering is it even possible, and how?

I know I've hurt you made you cry,
Like fading stars at dawn lost your trust.
My love for you endless like the sky,
Even with my mistakes incredibly unjust.

I never knew how much I loved you,
Until I tried to wipe your endless tears.
When I think of the times I was untrue,
It still kills me even after all these years.

I remember promising us both that day,
It wouldn't be the way it was then.
Vowed my love would never stray,
Would rather die than see you cry again.

You held my hand and stuck by my side,
Without your love the dreams were shattered.
Realizing now I don't have to count, I tried,
All along you've been the only star that mattered.

So I'll forever keep my promise to you,
In my heart I know you'll never be far.
The first time I saw you my soul knew,
You'd always be my beautiful north star.

*The North Star is the only one in the sky that never moves or leaves.
No matter what, it is always there to guide us home if we become lost or afraid.
I want Nyna to know she's always been and will always be my North Star and for that I'm truly grateful.
She's my best friend and above all else..... my hero. I'll love her until the stars no longer shine*
