Star in a Constellation

56

By Not Telling

Space

Between us

Too much

Sometimes it seems

Love to

Be part of the

Get the kids to school

Or daycare or whatever

Craziness every day

(Like the Jetsons)

Or some days

Once in a while

Love to

Have lunch with you

Someplace sometimes

Coffee

Or a beer

Love to

Work and know

Eventually

We'll have a couple of minutes to share

Love to

Be a slightly nearer star

In your galaxy

Planet in your system

If not a satellite

Or maybe or

That might be boring

Really

For both of us

?

A satellite

Me circling around you

Waiting for my orbit to decay

"Look

There he goes again

Right on schedule

Ho hum"

Although satellites

Eventually crash into the bodies they orbit

Doesn't sound half bad

Except for the burning up in the atmosphere

Part

Or maybe

!

I can be a comet

Wayward traveler

Passing by

With a degree

Of unpredictability

Sharing a little gravity

Love to

I adore poetry that reference the stars and the universe. It is like mentioning that there is more above the skies and on thru an eternity! Well done!

I can sense the vague emptiness you are feeling and the desire to grasp what seems out of reach...but yet hoping that time...or fate itself will allow a moment shared, a deep longing, a desire to be united. And not giving up...I loved it!
