the thing she came to love about
darkness
was the way it allowed the stars to
shine
Louise Alexandra Erskine
fingers travelling down my spine
slow hands
fast breathing
the night sky isn’t the only reason I can see the
stars
Louise Alexandra Erskine
for all the people that looked at the
darkness
in you and were scared
I hope you know
that when I looked at you
all I ever saw was the stars
Louise Alexandra Erskine
under the clear night sky
the heartbreak felt exquisite
Louise Alexandra Erskine
she came to love the night
for it was under the cover of darkness
she could let her heart see his
ghost
Louise Alexandra Erskine
she carried too much darkness
but he was starlight
and felt at home there
where he could truly shine
Louise Alexandra Erskine
