Last night I sat out with the stars and gazed
wondering if they could hear the silent wishes I send.
Truly beautiful in the glow they bask in.
It reminded me of being with friends.
Last night I sat out with them and pondered
many, many, many thoughts of life.
I pondered the reflections of myself in my eyes.
I pondered the moments of all my strife.
Last night my mind was far away from usual.
I focused on things deep down that I felt.
I tried to see beauty where none once stood.
It was the stars, like eyes, watching me melt.
Last night in that glow that shined from above
I seen pictures of memories that I tried to forget.
It was almost like real yet known to be past.
The memories suppressed for so long I kept.
So today I woke up and sat back outside.
This was what my blue eyes seen.
Malachi playing with dragon flies.
Oh what the sight has done for me.
So precious is he, my dog and my life.
Tranquility washed me of so much stress.
Just seeing him shine in the sun and his smile.
I was able to get so much off my chest.
I actually seen beauty today instead of pain.
My mind was away from whats usually there.
I wasnt content til I opened my eyes
and seen the impression of memories near.
My heart was the feeling that long went away
and for some reason today I allowed it to feel.
Just seeing and believing that I'll be okay.
Today more than ever that feeling was real
