Black Star
by Ana Irenea Olmedo
December, December,
O how I remember,
The cold wind against my cheek
My lips kissed by the poorly lit night.
I never thought I'd miss it
Having you by my side.
The stars in the sky,
The stars by the window,
we adore
I remember you,
I remember love,
I remember it all,
I remember us.
I made up this poem last night just before I went to sleep. My boyfriend has been miles away from me for 5 months now. Whenever I'm at school and I walk past the places where we used to recollect a lot I tend to miss him. This December has been the first time where I actually missed him when I'm at school and I wanted to cry but I can't because I'm in public.
I sent this poem as a group message last night to him and to my friends. No feedback was given. I wonder if he even read it. I just miss him and I'm going to miss him more this Christmas and New Year because he's not coming home. :(
