She sits in a red dress That shows more of herself than she’d like. She’s happily, newly married, but only for a while Once the week is done she’ll hang up her dress And sigh. She waited for the unicorn And has seen many ***** pass by. She has seen the *** inside herself. I linger, as in the night, as Ghosts of arms surround me, as they sigh and scream, *In the clearing, the moon wanes soft as it greets the grass salted with tears I reached out my hand, and - I almost touched it.  * “Hold on, hold on, wait for him He is coming.” I’ll stay no longer in this star-scarce company. The roots of celestials have buried themselves in my heart And galaxies have formed in my mind. I find myself shooting amid suns. *The unicorn turned into an *** Before I could pull my hand away. I am burned.  * I am left waiting.

Lady In Waiting
