Just a star

His eyes glittered, like the stars above
as he lay on the green earth
remembering the time he lay holding her
her fingers filling the empty spaces between his


He closed his eyes to the blinding pain,

a single tear slipped out the corner
he imagined her laughter, so full of sunshine
her silky brown mane, blown back by wind
he remembered her labored breaths, when they made love on pearl white bed
he remembered watching her sleep, peaceful like an angel


and then he opened his eyes

felt her hollow presence
how he missed her being
how she was all but a star now
one of the million, and so far away
