Souls intertwined in cosmic romance
Now forlorn, torn lovers of colossal distance,
Dissevered from the entanglement
their flesh had tasted;                      
Hurled to opposite poles,                
sober from perfervid love--            
now wasted.                

And the one lays off his skin as carpet of welcome
For the other, enchanted on the fibers of another,
Like the strings he strums.

Celestial bodies ****** to eternally savor
the abysmal vastness of space;                      
For they once were intertwined souls          
With eyes that cut through distance's face--
Now dead, floating specks of nothing
but mere lifeless, hurled fibers            
of burnt hearts, hurt lovers--                
upon endless horizons
like remnants of a dead star--
the glittering, prickly left overs.
