POETRY: "US"

"US"

I love 

Us, 

Standing now

Far yet close--

We are enough

To let the sun

Burn throughout. 

Us, 

Standing now

Far yet close--

You did see 

Neptune melting 

Its sky blue

Topaz?

Us, 

Separating now

Close yet far--

Promise me 

You'll send wishes 

To the stars

And reveal

The tiniest glimpse

Of fallen Heaven. 

We are enough

To devour 

Each planet 

Piece by piece

And 

Star by star.
