How many times have i counted the stars <br />Looking at them they never seemed that far <br />Within those eyes I feel like I want to cry <br />Is it out of fear, love, happiness? <br />I thought I already had died. <br />Inside where the flower petals gently glide <br />Onto this river of pain <br />Just to come back again someday <br />You make everything and this terrible world melt away <br />I feel it within those soft lips <br />The energy you give with those tiny hands on my hips <br />This illusion you created is better than anything I could of wished <br /> <br />Just like an eagle in the blue sky <br />Never weighed downed by lies <br />We fly where a place many have forgotten <br />Just like the rain <br />Feeling everyones pain <br />It's insane <br />You and I <br />Will become one not for just one day <br />Not just for one night <br />For eternity out of everyone's sight <br /> <br />It's a whole new level <br />I haven't felt this way in forever <br />Many have fallen <br />Stricken with emptiness <br />Sinking into loneliness <br />Just to let you know I was one of them <br />You saved me from this war <br />Where the outcome didn't matter <br />Everyone would of still lost their soul <br />Darling you are now my goal, <br />Reaching, and caring for your heart is what I live for <br /> <br />Just like an eagle in the blue sky <br />Never weighed downed by lies <br />We fly where a place many have forgotten <br />Just like the rain <br />Feeling everyones pain <br />It's insane <br />You and I <br />Will become one not for just one day <br />Not just for one night <br />For eternity out of everyone's sight<br /><br />Nathan Barkley<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/how-many-times-have-i-counted-the-stars/
