the stars on my ceiling remind me of you

The stars on my ceiling remind me of you

(20 stars of five colours)

At least, they remind me of what I remember

to be you

I think of how you must have

(individually)

stuck every one up

each pink/orange/yellow/red/blue

thinking of how much I would've love them

It's almost as if you knew

that you wouldn't be here forever

Sometimes I stare at my ceiling and I think of you

I think of a memory of you

and I feel sad

because I don't think you knew

that id grow up without you

when you stuck the stars on my ceiling

I don't think you knew

that I'd know you through pictures and

mom's memories

and flashbacks of forbidden ice cream

and the train station

I wish I knew you

I think I would've loved you.
