I think about all the nights The moon has held me in her mother’s glow Sent whispered reliefs to me on the wind And let me hear but for a moment, the gentle lull of the sea I think about all the days The sun has kissed away my sorrows with his warmth Has burnt out everything dark within me and left no scars I have felt his golden lips on my brow and knew it gilded a blessing into my skin I know that the rocking of the world does not equate To the slow circle I made inside of his arms But if he is away courting the stars that fall to earth for him Then I will at least allow myself this embrace And hope that with the turning of the sky above me So too will my heart fall away from his gravity If it means I am a comet blazing eternal through space So be it At least when I burn It will light the way only for me
