you are like the stars

so far away, unwavering

so how could i not fear

them as i did you


they labor in the inky

quilt of the evening,

beautiful in the way

i cannot touch them


beautiful in the way

that they just continue being


the distance teases

me like the sun dances

on the horizon


i can look but i cannot

touch


it leaves me

with a bitter taste

in my mouth


is this my blood or yours
