Two Stars
Without you, the world is no longer the same Together we are inseparable Wherever I am, I think of you From the beginning, I knew you were special Never forget how much I love you An unbreakable love, Two stars in the sky, forever together Without you, my universe is incomplete Image: 1
The Evening Sky
The Evening Sky Often the dark sky sparkles dots of light, Shimmering miles away they burn strong. One feels satisfaction from such a sight, And knows their glow will last forever long. With every three-fourths of a hundred years, A blazing streak illuminates the shade. An experience that presents no fears, One moment that will…
