My Starlight

What I always needed
was you,
always just you.
To be part of me like my
glasses or the
book by my chair.
Perhaps like the firelight
To rest In your arms
so full of warmth
comfort and safety.

Before we met
I dreamed of you..
you saw me there
in my dreams.
I Know you did.
I was holding out my arms
waiting for you.
Holding them out
until they ached.
Night after night
until dreams fade
into coffee and toast.

But I always knew
you were there for me.
That you would
come to me.one day.
Just as I Knew
the stars
are always there
even when
the sun is shining.
and no one can see them.
