My sweet dilemma,
forsaken by Earthly love,
stolen by the moon.
Jealous asteroids
sweep me into their orbit,
a cosmic embrace.
Eyes that see anew,
tell me that I shall find you,
a star I'd pursue.
My sweet gift, my curse,
your gravity I'd orbit,
if they'd just allow.
So stranded I lay,
wandering this lost planet,
circling it's beloved.
For too long I've cried,
aching to be found by you,
and from space I gleam.
*sigh*, I watch the stars,
glancing at sullen beacons,
their light shared with all.
I shine just for you,
in your arms, I'll find respite,
but distance cripples.
I picture you, there,
my essential winter plight
lingers with the breeze.
Oh, how love eludes,
loneliness broods when you pass,
inaccessible.
