stardust

  
starlight visible only in darkness
wraps its glory around me
jewels reserved to crown the universes
adorn my brokenness  
 
forlorn in humanity
I trace our immortal lineage  
back to the beginning  
bending time I see you now
as you first appeared all those eons ago
 
lonely stardust I ache--  
with the want of you
but my mortal coil is wrapped tightly around me
you vanish from my vision
 
I reach out to touch--
with lingering sensations  
of our becoming  
then you withdraw  
and I'm left with a hole
 
my soul seeks you throughout the universes
in your private places
in anger I say I've evolved and don't need you
then I pray as a child  
so I can see you once more
 
in the first revolution of time I was your woman
my heart is humbled
two immortal forces become one
a cosmic one night stand
by morning light you'll be gone
