The Star Jar

 

Everywhere, I see myself these days,
I see a smile attached to my face.

My worries have started to disappear,
I see the happiness on my plate.

The memory of you is stuck in my head,
the scent of you is printed on my chest.

Anywhere in the world, I hear your name,
\"you are only mine\" is all I claim.

The beauty of yours is like a bottomless sea,
and it stretches as far as the eyes can see.

In your arms is where my world lies,
For me, it\'s great peace, a heavily prize.

So my love, let\'s gaze the stars,
let\'s make some memories, and put them in a nightjar.
