Strike a match
To respond to the bright star's breath.
On the dark and deep water,
The reflections of love
Meet and melt into each other's existence.
Then piece the fragments of starlight together
Into a unique face.
To go far, farther
Or through an unmeasurable distance,
The fire will not ever forget to flame
Over the inextinguishable watch.

I didn't entirely get what this poem was talking about at first, but then it hit me like a freight train so to speak. It made me think of campfires outside at night and how it feels to be with someone you love. A very interesting and unique piece.
