Planet

I'm stargazing, but I can only see you.
I picture you in my mind's eye
Remember your magic.
I'm drawn to you like a fly to a flame
You are far away, but yet so bright! so tantalizing! --
Like a mysterious planet streaking across the sky

You are in my sight
I've stumbled into your realm
And your spirit touches me
A warm prickling
A soft hand on my cheek
Stroking my neck
Kissing my lips

And one day you are here.
I turn my head from the clouds and see you
just as you are --
still radiant, after so long --
and I smile.

Spin! Spin! Spin! in your rotations
Pick up speed and revolve
Evolve
How beautiful you are! --
Like a sun --
The prodigal son returns
Even more luminous than before
Emanating a clarity of spirit I can
See in the limpid depths of your eyes.

Spin! And let me spin with you, in your
world so lush and luminescent!
My hands pressed against my heart
And ever reaching for your touch...
