I.
We’re always waiting
for ghosts, even as
we hide from them.
We are stars
burning ourselves
out, wishing that
things turned
out a bit different.
.
II.
But now you’re so far
away;
like dawn from moon,
we sleep in different
lights, even as we
both live on the moon.
III.
We are mirrors at
midnight;
(Why are we so empty?)
I look into your eyes
and feel what
I’ve felt for eons.
IV.
Everything falls,
and I know you’re empty.
Let one more in before
you say “farewell.”
If all else fails,
and I’m still empty
I’d still fall in love,
even if it meant that you
might not be mine.

Broken soul-mates trying to identify the barriers they have in an attempt to fix each other. One is in love with the others flaws, while the other is so unsure about themselves, and the person who just kinda popped up in their life.
