there are worse things
than having a knot
in your throat

like
having a pull
on your chest

you see
I can undo the knot

I know, however
the pull is you
at the other end
of the string

the sun rises
     you rise
the moon rises
     you rise

you are a constant light

the sun sets
and with it, my defenses

the night makes me vulnerable
to you

the stars come out
and I look up

I replace each of their names
with a memory of you

and when I piece them together
you become a constellation
