Starry-Eyed

Folder: 
Love Blossoms

I don’t want this day to end.

I don’t want
the night to come
and cover us in starlight.

The twinkle in your eye
will light the sky.

I want to stay here with you
forever,
sipping on
laughter
and drunken smiles.

I wish to capture this memory
in my mind’s photo bank:

the hum of heartbeats,
our limbs intertwined
and the sound of puckered lips.

If this is a dream,
I hope I never wake up.
