Make a Wish

A Poem by Giulia King

There's something hauntingly beautiful about the way she carries herself.

Even if her heart is shattered in a million pieces,

she's always mindful of the type of energy she surrounds herself with.

And I am forever jealous of her relationship with the starry sky.

. . .

You.

Her deep dark eyes searched for his.

"You take me to places, I've never known before.

How did you know my favorite thing is star gazing?" She asked.

"I knew it, simply by the way your eyes light up when the sun goes down.

No one fancies the darkness as much as you do."

"It's not darkness to me", she says with a frown on her face.

"There's something magical about the stars in the velvety sky."

"What's so magical about it?" He asks.

"You can close your eyes and make a wish and it will come true."

"Do you trust me?"

"Always," he says.

As she reaches out her hand to him she says,

"Close your eyes, make a wish and think of me."

He takes her hand,

closes his eyes

and makes his last wish.

To me, it feels as if the stars mock us, blinking down, smiling mockingly, making fun while I blink back tears... To some yes it seems magical but I've always felt my wishes never even reached the stars let alone been heard.....

"You can close your eyes and make a wish and it will come true."
These are the only lines I don't agree with but I do not deny the beauty of your words, for they are mesmerizing..

Sorry for giving such a lousy review, Gullia! Your words definitely had an impact on me, more than I liked..

And I know I'm not bored of your starry poems! 😉 keep going the way you're going ☺👍
