"For each of us there comes a time when we must be more than what we are"















Lloyd Alexander


remember the day you told me you loved me?
did you mean it?
did you breathe in and feel my love?
we were everything,
could’ve been everything more.
two stars colliding in a
deep,
dark,
universe
unfolding light
brillance
passionately on fire.
one touch and we could’ve lit the world.
one kiss, one brush of skin on skin
one more confession of love.

remember the day you told me you loved me?
it doesn’t matter if you meant it,
because you don’t anymore
and the stars have veered off,
no longer on the same path
no longer doomed to meet,
no longer doomed for love.
put your fire extinguisher away love,
dont worry.
the fire never started,
never sparked.
you’re safe now, don’t worry.
put down the iron,
you don’t need it.
you are made of iron,
of stardust,
of love.

remember the day you told me you loved me?
remember the stars and the lights
and the fire and the pain.
don’t worry, i’m gone.
goodbye
goodbye
goodbye

 

but please
breathe in and feel my love
