Reverie

I found myself, one night,
as I stared at the stars, I
almost felt like I belonged,
for they stared back at me.

As the music blurred out,
a reverie, I lost myself to,
knowing all at once not
everything comes to leave.

I felt at peace somehow,
knowing I'm not all alone.
In a world filled with stars,
on a terrace with music on.

The wind brushes my flaws,
reminding me that It's okay,
to not always be perfect,
to not always know why.

A smile creeps up my face,
mirroring the moon far away,
I know it's only as distant
as I let myself believe.

And just like that I found
new hope for another day.
For there's more to come,
And I'll let myself believe.
