Every Star

Every Star

A Poem by Andrea Greene
"

I want to sing from the rooftops, so instead off breaking a limb by doing that I'm just going to write. Also, I am thieving the statements of my beloved boyfriend and turning them into a poem! Sorry!

"


I'm in love with him because he is like the night sky
That brings such calm to his heart

He's got little flickers of endearing oddity
And every little thing about him
Like the gentleness in his voice when he's being romantic
Or the soft rumble in his chest when he sings 
His smiles, soft and bright and everything in between
Even his admittedly endearing hatred of mosquitos,

Is like another star in the sky
And they glow, each to their own,
So brightly and beautifully,
And together make up a million constellations that neither of us can name.

Some people only can fall in love with certain things about people
And take to stealing stars from the sky
But what good is a collection of stars
If there's nothing to hold them together, to preserve their glow?
And what beauty is there in a night sky
With missing stars?

And so I am forever falling up, into the sky,
Hopelessly in love with every star
Everything about you
And it is falling in love with everything you are
That makes the world, with this night-sky analogy
So bright, and beautiful, and vast,
And everlasting.

I'm totally not adding any other secret message in white, why would I do that? Anyways, dear heart, I love you to the moon and back and beyond, and to a million other infinities of poems I've not yet written.  I promise I shall love you for evermore. I'm also going to stop talking.

Well, you said it was the sky, but I found a terrible analogy and I am rolling with it. It also says I misspelled mosquitos? Well, if I did, correct me on that. Let me know what you think! Also, Kylie, if you're still reading these, please fix the title. I kind of ruined it. Also also, gotta love that 6th grade photo 10/10
