I am so overcome with love
But only when my mind is hazy
And thoughts come slowly, quietly

What am I so ashamed of
That I can only see you warmly
In the dark?

Why is it easier to concede
To love when
I’m not thinking clearly?

My darling, I know
Your heart aches with a
Lifetime of burden
And regret, but the
World still turns, the tides
Still crash, and the moon
Still shines. Despite
The hole in
Your chest.

The light is red.

I look over at you,
Eyes pleading for a kiss.
You give in
And the world seems to stop,
As two lovers
Escape for a moment
Of bliss.

The light is green.

Time has given up on me
And so has gravity,
As I stray through
Barriers of now and then.
Floating through past,
                               present,
                               future
Never settling anywhere
A stranger even in
Memories of my own
Don’t mind me, I’m
Just visiting
Just passing through

I’ll be gone soon.

Underneath an
Empty sky I
Cry out
My loneliness
Pour out
My sadness to
Celestial beings
Who could not care less

Eventually,
I stop my crying
And I go to join
The moon and all her
Glorious stars
