Admiration
Shimmering in the luminescent sky
I watch you as the night goes by
Hovering above for the world to see
Wishing they would just leave you be
Encapsulating in your brightness
Capturing your likeness
The right words comes slowly
Not able to articulate correctly
I wish you could clearly see
Just how much you mean to me
Without you I am nothing
With you I am everything
I take pride in what you are
Even though I admire from afar
Never to feel your coolness
I accept your loneliness
I will adore you until I die
Worship all you behold in the vast sky
