Pale and out of reach like the moon An invisible force that attracts me Her fierce blue eyes remind me of the sea like the moon rocks the ocean I feel like her eyes could put me to sleep Like Medusa with a single gaze I’d be hard as stone but I’ll never get the chance to know her I only see her through the glass window But to breathe in the same era And to know that in a lifetime She will have taken infinite breaths And like the world spins round Her breath is out there Taking its course through the cycles of nature The plants will recycle her essence Into new air that I might someday breathe
