Two Stars
In the dark, navy blue sky, we are the brightest star. We are one of those binary star systems, always orbiting each other, stuck in the magnetic fields of each other, not being to stay away but not wanting to.
We burn so hot, hotter than anything else, everything else. We burn with the white kind of light that makes everything else dim in comparison. And we routinely have to give each other space in our red moods, and so we walk away, but always to come back after we realize that we can't leave, so we reunite in our blue mood.
And so it goes, our orbiting, our burning, our leaving our quick return.

This is a lovely little snippet of prose. I particularly liked the last line and how beautifully expressed that is. The space imagery melds beautifully into the imagery of love.
Thank you for sharing.
