If you were mine, I must not touch you. In the desert of space and time I would watch you turn. And you would know that every part of you was being memorized, so that I could still fuel my world when you're not home. Like solar energy. Like sunflowers. If you were mine, you must never be held. I will always be longing for your warmth, basking in your glow, thriving from the excess you exhale. You, my sun, are everything-- and when you go, we will surely follow.

In your morning light
If you were mine, I must not touch you. In the desert of space and time I would watch you turn. And you would know that every part of you was being memorized, so that I could still fuel my world when you're not home. Like solar energy. Like sunflowers. If you were mine, you must never be held. I will always be longing for your warmth, basking in your glow, thriving from the excess you exhale. You, my sun, are everything-- and when you go, we will surely follow.
