under the stars

it was raining.
but he still went out,
and up,
just to stare at the stars.
another calm, clear night.

and wondered,
and hoped that they are looking on one single star
and he thought,
"of all the stars in the universe,
what are the odds that we are both looking at the same twinkling light?"

they may be under one big sky.
and under the glow of one great moon.
but if he and she are looking at two totally different stars...
then their eyes are set on stars that are light years away.

...or, right now, is she even looking at the stars?

"and i kept myself a secret lover.
and i kissed you silently with all the strength of my heart
and the universe blushed, as it lay itself upon us."
