Between Eternal Stars and Human Souls
A Poem on Timely Distance and Loss
The night is clear and our rampant moon half full
The light is not light and nor is it dark
The stars are on their everlasting orbits
Sending their icecold business cards to my eye
Ancient light from someone
who might not longer be around
.
The sky is clear and our sun burns so hot
We dance the old walzer dos á dos
So cheerful both and full of hope
We dream the same in eliptical form
Tomorrow we look like someones
Who might not longer be around.
.
The space between us is huge yet you’re sitting here
I see you bright yet unclear in your niche
Your warm body forever not longer mine
Where did you go without notice to me
Yesterday you talked to me as one
Who might not longer be around
.
The stars twinkle like every night
A shooting star so fast and bright
Formations on the firmament
Man made pictures paints the vault
Mathematic predictions of souls
who might not longer be around.
