Starry Night

As I looked up at the lovely night sky, I saw a shooting star with my very eyes. The stars are so many; who can count them all? As I laid on the beach next to you. I thought to myself, the grains of sand are many; who can count them all? Perhaps a world-renowned scholar or a mathematician would be able to? At that moment as I stared into your eyes, and whispered, “ There's not enough seconds, minutes, or hours of the day to measure the love that I have for you.” Alexis Y. 02/03/2021
