To Touch The Stars

I believe the human journey was never meant to be taken alone, and until I was in my forties I never really understood why I couldn't reach the stars...then along came a man I want to share all of my sunsets with...and now the stars are always within my reach....here's to love!


Poem Artwork

 

Always just out of reach…the stars!
Alone, no matter how lofty the peaks I scaled
Eyes stinging from the dripping
Burning sweat of my brow…
Blurring my vision until I couldn’t see
Beyond myself…
Always just out of reach…the stars!
No matter which road I took
It seemed the one I chose
Was riddled with hidden craters
And I’m was lost in a forlorn mist so dense
There was only me, and
Always just out of reach…the stars!
But one day I came to a crossroads
And with another soul I collided.
He walked with me, hand in hand
Until we reached a towering peak
Then he lifted me…
And I touched the stars!

This is just riveting, Anna. To be able to, with a soul-mate's help, reach the stars is an grande thing indeed. Congratulations to you and the one you reach the stars with.
