I stepped in water
You stepped in fog
Your eyes watched the stars
And my eyes were locked on you.
With you
It was always the moon
That you loved and reached for
With me it was always you
That I loved and reached for
You loved the world
And asked impossible questions
You looked for love
And reached through me
I didn’t understand
The world you loved
But I knew that
I wanted to be a part of it
But you cast me out
Into the water
And watched me
Drown.
You Were The Stars To Me
