Valentines, Part One: a thousand years & ten days / bend the light...

 

And in different beds

we may both lie /

but I feel we may be

stars born of the same sky.

It's true:

We're like two stars in the

same evening sky,

separated by time and a lot of space /

May these words gently comfort you,

like some kind of interstellar embrace.

And can you still feel my fingers as they linger

in your hair? In the stars (I see behind closed lids)

I can still see your

blissful smile,

your glowing face.

And here, where you lay

mere days 

(or was it light-years) ago? /

I am still finding stardust

in all my

sheets & on my pillows.

Such a tender, sweet meeting

of two pairs of soft wet lips /

a beautiful cosmic collision

of our sacred sun & moon, eclipsed.

I still shudder, can you feel it?

This star is born anew /

and seeks your blaze

too!

Distance cannot diminish this passion

born of and from the very fiery core

of two

love-fueled suns

and twin 

flames.

Not when alone / together

we have blazed for

a thousand years and ten days.

Sirius,

believe it 

when I chase you across the heavens

and say:

"I love you."

Please look for me amongst the

constellations of Pisces & Scorpio.

I long

to once more fill you

with my cosmic, ancient fire!!

Bend the light with me...

And here, where you lay

mere days 

(or was it light-years) ago? /

I am still finding stardust

in all my

sheets & on my pillows.

I am still finding stardust

in all my 

sheets,

and on my pillows.

Doubt that the sun doth move;

Doubt truth to be a liar;

But never doubt I love."
