Wish you were here

Gabriel ilori

Ode
Looking at the night sky
Sights of the little bright stars clearing my mind
The cool night breeze,soothing my skin
Bringing back memories of yo.
The constellation merged to form your face,your bright smile beaming through the night.
Images of you filled my heart.
Lying here thinking of you, feeling cold and wanting.
Though the night breeze brings sounds of your laughter,I still wish you were here
