Stargazer

She looks to the skies
on every dark night
counting the stars
wishing she was there

she looks to the skies
to catch the falling stars
to hold close, so dear
to love them as her own

she looks to the skies
to feel the comfort provided
by the endless constellations
with stories from the ancients

she looks to the skies
to somewhere she might go
to memorize something
that humans have yet to taint
