Stargazer
You've got an old name
and an older soul.
With a smile in your eye,
a sigh on your mind.

You took my hand
and
lent me your ear
when
I didn't know
I needed them.
I needed you.

Your subtlety calmed my thoughts,
your compassion helped me through.
When I thought
we had changed,
I found, instead we had grown.

And you're so much greater
than I give you credit for.
And you're so perfect
at being you.

Once you told me
the stars were your catharsis,
now I know you'll reach them
someday.
