Do You Remember When...

Do you remember when the stars captivated you? You'd sit beside me on a grassy lawn telling me the story behind each star. I never was much of an astrologer, but being with you on those beautiful nights always enraptured me. I could fall in love with the stars just from hearing you tell me of them...
Now you're different, changed - "a grown up", you say. You're not a child any more, frolicking in fantasies. You face life and its realities head-on. No longer do you look at the starry sky, but rather at the rocky ground on which you stand. You laugh at me cuz I still remember and I still replay those magical nights with you.
But I see that twinkle in your eye when you think I'm not looking. I see the aching desire to re-live those childish years. I catch you gazing out the window, wishing you could be free again.
My love, let you heart soar and race above, the way you used to. Let the stars captivate you once more as they dance to the melody of the night. Don't be afraid to throw your head back and feel the wind carressing your face. True freedom is found in those moments when we give ourselves completely.
