Starry Eyed

Searching for something more,

The days pass me by,

like the wind on the shore.

I look to the stars for answers,

Hoping to see my future,

In their crystal like light.

As the darkness of night,

wraps around me like a blanket.

A constant reminder of reality.

I’ve let myself become starry eyed,

too engrossed in my dreams.

Always saying nothing is what it seems.

Always hoping for something unattainable.

I allow reality to set in, as I search-

for something new in the stars’s light.

Now reaching for what’s within reason,

instead of chasing after the next season.
