If Only
An endless sky surrounds us,
a view for all to see
when darkness shines upon its veil
the stars play endlessly.
Lighting up a brand new path,
to twinkle in the sky
playing guess the galaxy
without ever wondering why.
Lying there beneath the night,
a partner at your side
only still and silence hears
the secrets you confide.
If only life were like this night,
when happiness felt real
then all the wounds that hurt so deep
wouldn’t take so long to heal.
