,,In the dream I don't tell anyone, You lay your head on my lap"

I combed your hair with my fingers as we let the breeze pass us by, I've given you my jacket as a way to shelter you from the cold

I look at you and smile, our fingers intertwined then you look up at me and smile

And I saw the stars in your eyes, saw the way they shone reflecting every light there was up at the sky

I hold your face as I admire you, you rest your face in my hands and my body is suddenly filled with warmth

And at that moment I think about asking you for your ring size, I won't say anything, I can't say anything

You say nothing either and hold my face you must see something because you smile and your eyes shine brighter than when they were looking at the stars

I wonder if that was your way of saying to me I was beautiful

I caress your face and trace every detail on it with my eyes, hoping to myself that I never forget how you look like under the stars

You look beautiful, I wanted to say it was on the tip of my tongue, I don't say it, I couldn't say it

Instead, I look at you and hope that my eyes are enough to portray how even when the stars are shining in the sky, even when the moon is full and above us, I still choose to look at you

And I'd make that choice again and again if I could see the way you look at the stars and see how your eyes reflect their light

I close my eyes and hold you close and before I knew it I'm in my bed my ceiling above me, you—nowhere near me

And in that dream wherever it is you and I were happy

I wanted the image of you under the stars etched into my brain but now all I can remember is everything I left unsaid
