He
    l    i
                 u
        m,

you were and I was

              hy d r  o   g    e     n,

and together we
shone like
the

stars

The heat we made
whenever
we made contact and love

bre…
…athes

life to those who
bare witness
to
our
romance

But when,
when you left
me
in the center of this collapsing
b o
            n
d

as you said you were
all spent and
done

I caved in
and tried to swallow
every ray of

~light~

we shed

d e s p e r a t e l y clinging
to what
was once

*ours.
