i have spent my life bathing in the light of stars
drifting through a void so limitless
that i have never felt their warmth
i'm always too far, too cold, too much
but darling, i've gotten stuck in your obit and suddenly i understand what makes a sun different, what separates two heavenly bodies that share everything in common
but a name
you weren't afraid to get close
- and that made it all worth while
