Jasmine Cruz Poet Rhyme

Nightly Routine

( NIGHTLY ROUTINE )

I look up to the stars above,
and I wish for your love.
I close my eyes so hard and tight,
and pray to God with al my might.

This is my nightly routine,
I ask for the boy within my dream.
I hope someday it will come true,
and I'll spend the rest of my life with you.

But when I do re-open my eyes,
I do not see you. No surprise.
Instead, a darkness inside an empty room,
except for the small light of the moon.
