perhaps due to the insignificance
of my fluctuating existence
it seemed harder to return your love;
to shower you with what you deserve
and though for us the stars won't align
my destiny is yours as yours is mine
till our moons crumble inexorably to dust
our splintered hearts wander the Milky way
blindly, aimlessly proving fate just
right up to the point of impending decay
