Closing the Chapter

The night sky tries in vain
To mimic his sultry eyes.
The scenic stars dim in shame
To the glimmer of joy in him.

Sometimes I dream of him,
A slave to his allure.
I can't help it
He beckons me to rest.

I feel reason seeping into me,
As I remind myself of my fate,
The fate he assigned me.

But the torture of reality
Forces my eyes shut and
I dream of him one more time....
