Eclipse

I watch from afar.
Wishing I could see you.
So that I might gaze upon you.
Even if it's just a moment longer.
I often wish I were blind.
Because looking upon you scorns my eyes and soul.
I know that you don't know.
I know that you will never feel the same.
But oh how I long for you.
How I long for the eclipse that so rarely comes.
How I long for our paths to cross.
For us to be side by side for that split second.
That split second that I love.
Just so I can be close.
Just so I can see you.
Just so you can see me.
I love the eclipse.
I crave the eclipse.
For I am the moon and you are the sun.
And we are so close but yet so far.
