Up In The Stars
Up In The Stars
She is staring and she wants to know,
Why did you leave her and where did you go?
She stares at the night sky for hours,
Wanting to know if you're up in the stars.
She is waiting for you everyday,
Will you come and will you stay?
She stares at the night sky for hours,
Needing to know if you're up in the stars
She is breaking down slowly,
Why did you have to make her so lonely?
She stares at the night sky for hours,
Tell her, are you up in the stars?
She is still waiting for you,
Will you tell her that you were not true?
She stares at the night sky for hours,
Are you up in the stars?

Firstly, I am so sorry for not updating in such a long time. I was busy with my finals for most of March and the new semester is keeping me on my toes to say the least.
Secondly, a lot has happened in the last few months. I hope everyone is doing well, staying safe and healthy. Sending lots of love and positivity. ❣️

This composition was short but powerful, and a little whimsical I felt. I appreciate how you change the last line of every stanza with to describe her changing emotions throughout. Wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI haven't been able to read a lot because I've been occupied with work but the last book I read was the Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway. Hope you're doing fine too.
Thank you so much for your encouraging words!๐
DeleteOoooh, I've been wanting to try Ernest Hemingway too. Would you suggest starting with the "Old Man & The Sea"?
Yeah, you can start with this or The Sun Also Rises.
Deletebeautiful๐๐ป
ReplyDeleteSuch tender feelings expressed so well! Keep it up ๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ป I'm reading The Bluest Eye by Toni Morrison, it follows an African-American girl in Ohio. I've been trying to read some Black authors, and so far its been a refreshing perspective.
ReplyDeleteToni Morrison, *sigh* her books are on my huge tbr pile, and somehow I never get around to reading it. I've read excerpts though, and her work is powerful
DeleteSo happy to hear from you again, star! Love this piece!! i'm not reading anything as of now but....uhh if you're into poetry (i'm guessing you are) you can check out sylvia plath's poetry
ReplyDelete"Wear your heart on your skin in this life" Sylvia Plath will always have my heart!
DeleteI like to decipher meaning of poems with my own point of view and this poem gives me so much freedom to interpret it and think about it differently. glad to have you back here. i just finished a poetry collection by Emily Dickinson, her work is truly magical.
ReplyDeleteShe is magical! Hope is the thing with feathers has a special place in my heart!
DeleteAmazing work, I like how you repeat certain lines to emphasize your point and show the readers her desperation and heartbreak. I am reading People We Meet on Vacation.
ReplyDeleteThank you for paying attention to such details! I've heard great reviews, will definitely get around to reading it sometime. l
Deletea tiny little tinge of angst and really heartfelt emotions! cUrrently reading Circe by madeline miller. what about you?
ReplyDeleteThank you! I am almost done with Midnight Children by Salman Rushdie, its a tough read but so far seems completely worth it.
Deletesimply fantastic :D i'm not reading anything currently but i love classical novels, so maybe give those a try?
ReplyDeleteOH MY GOD! SAME! (excuse, the caps lock please)I love the idea of re-creating a social world of another century, and reading detailed observations of customs, values of a highly complex society. Which are your favorites?
Deletewhich authors do your usually read? i fell in love with classics because of jAne austen, then fell down the rabbit hole of oscar wilde...
DeleteI love Jane Austen too! My favorite is Persuasion and I also really love The Secret Garden and Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte. I've read Oscar Wilde's poetry but not much other work. I'll surely try it though!
DeleteIncredible!!!! Absolutely love the theme and the tone of the poem. It's beautifully written!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Guneet! Looking forward to reading your work too!
DeleteWow, just wow! Sending peace and positivity to you too!
ReplyDeleteYour writings always strike a chord with me. Every emotion be it positive or contrast, up or down, they are always picturised by your poems in absolute sync and beautifully complement each other.
ReplyDeleteIt really is heart-warming to see so many lovely inspiring comments here. Keep rocking young lady, and make more and more fall in love with your reads!! :)
Thank you so much! Your thoughtful comments and such wonderful wishes always keep me going! :)
