Not In My Stars

I sketched you in my heart, I inked you to my being, You're tattooed to me my love, Ingrained in my soul. I know its so cliche' - The very thing you detest. But I put you there so you could never find your name written in my stars, Thus never able to take yourself away. I see you now in passing cars, busses and trains, as they come and go my love, Unaffected by my hurt, Their purpose remains the same.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Have a blessed day.
