fingertips and shoulders touching underneath warm hoodies 

as we lay on the cold, hard ground staring up at the stars. 

we connect them in our minds to paint the picture of our love. 

eyelids flutter underneath the release of your breath

and i dont even have to look at you 

to know your eyes are darting from star to star

faster than the wheels turning in your head. 

i dont even have to know what youre thinking

to know that every puff of air 

is a melody whispering softly

"i love you"

"i love you"

"i love you"
