On my count


When I count the stars, I look for you,
Because in my heart I feel you can see me too.
1, 2, 3, I begin to count,
My eyes fixed and focused, scanning for a sign so profound.

4, 5, 6, the night sky’s embrace,
Each star a memory, a familiar face.
In the black void each glimmering light
I search for your presence, you spirit aflight

7, 8, 9, the constellations weave,
Stories of love, of loss, of what I believe.
Its not what others expect or percieve
Knowing our bond will never cease.

10, 11, 12, the stars align,
A celestial promise, you are forever mine.
Though you’re beyond what eyes can see,
In every star, you live with me.

This Poems Story

As the majority of my poetry, this is a dedication for my late wife. This poem was made the night I became very close to being a statistic. I was sad, deeply bothered by the absence of my wife.
