Like Stars

We were thrown, like stars,
Across the heavens, sparkling
Glad across the distance.
Our hair ran out behind us

Leaving trails of waving patterns
Marking out our travels. We were
Happy eating ice-cream, thinking
Summer had no end, while

We were licking lips and twisting
Fingers. We stood up on the table
And ran across the benches,
Leaping from each one. We were

Bound to our own happiness,
Only knowing it would end.
