someone new
you were
someone new
like sunshine
those few rays
shining bright
hitting you right
on the face
blinding you at
you stare, then wonder
at the strangeness
that how you
chose to ignore it
the way moon chooses to
ignore the stars
standing tall
with arrogance
you were
someone new
like waking up from a
deep sleep slumber
of the monotonous life
freeing from the cries
and the terrible lies
you were the
laugh in my throat
the smile on my
lips
you were someone new
like a forgotten song
half remembered lyrics
like the music
on a dead night
like dancing on an
empty floor
you were someone new
the moonlight could
not outshine you
the stars could not
forget you
the sun could
not do anything
but accept you
because you were
someone new
someone i knew
from time far away
when they wished
upon those stars
for someone just
like you
