Short poems: Oceans, Midnight, and Stars

Take me back to that night 
when the stars were our only witness.
Take me back to the night. Courtesy.

Oceans

My feelings are like oceans.

 At first it’s bright and blue,

but the deeper you get


the darker it gets.

Midnight

Take me back to

that night 


when the stars were

our only witness.

Stars

the stars are


the only memory

that reminds me of you.
