June Night Sky

June 25th, 2015

Dear Levi,

Starlight. Rigel and Jupiter making love in the night sky. Twilight of teal and dusky blue turning to darkness of night. Infinite quiet bliss in the balm of summer. Firefly fascination, infatuation of the glowing, floating wishes under the tall, dark mulberry eaves... The rustling leaves, cooing crickets, staccato of insects in the quiet darkness, a moment of breeze carrying the sound of long grasses and wildflowers and drooping hyacinth bushes, sweet fragrance of summer June nights. Moonlight, silver and mysterious, touching the skyline of rooftops and maple leaves with a subtle, perfect glow.

Oh, Levi. I sit here on my car and drink it in. I'm living my life, but not for a minute does the ache go away, remembering the boy who would have once sat with me here and lived it with me.

I miss you so much tonight it hurts, oh so much. Oh so much. The waiting, it hurts. The unknown.

Will I ever know?

Your star,
Rigel
