October

The hours drifted away,
Like the stars in the sky. 
The same stars that framed your face that night, 
That night felt like only hours ago 
Even though it's been three years. 

It's been three years since we've talked, 
And I still don't know what happened. 
I still think about you.
And as it nears October again
I still search for the stars in the sky;
Hoping I can remember what went wrong.

    i walked down the street 
    a block or so down

    Instead it is the science in the world

    The reason we are here in this moment
