Oh Isabelle, by the time you have read this letter, I will be gone. Don’t fill up Styx with your celestial tears, dolorous darling. I was always the heavy volume between dark and light, never the heavens you imagined. But the tiny fragments of shimmer you saw in space. I was the Sun, Polaris, Sirius and Vega You insist to give me a name and meaning I was Orion, Taurus, Aries, Andromeda, No longer the withered blossoms of stars
Sonorous darling, there is not much to say but that I am no longer yours No longer the array of constellations you made of me
I belong to another Another Celeste, another Corona Perhaps I never was the constant Sun I was the shifting heavens, the voracious tides on Neptune
And now I’m no longer yours Rising from my astral birth, Im no longer yours.
