APOGEE AND PERIGEE.

APOGEE AND PERIGEE.

Full and first last quarters
Dark and blue shades of me
Hidden behind clouds, you never see
My beauty ofย  Apogee and Perigee
And all the gifts I give to thee
The winds and tides and gravityย 
Love, romance and poetryย 
Phases bathing alone at night
Gold and silver, burning brightย 
For all the world to seeย 
I'm just a mirror glowing in her lightย 
A reflection, is all I'll ever be.
ย 
Drifting alone, continually hereย 
And you don't even know I'm thereย 
All the times I eclipsed the Sun
Captured comets, one by oneย 
The constellations I arrangedย 
Just for you to give them names
Only for us to see and envy
So our nights, wouldn't be as empty
Heaven belonged to you and meย 
The stars, forever and Eternityย 
And Saturn even gave us ringsย 
Sadly now, they don't mean a thing.

Endlessly lost, I orbit aloneย 
Around the only home I've ever known
And this hold you have on me
Now wishes someday to be free
To run away with Eternity
To somewhere it is, that comets goย 
You and your friend can be all alone
And all the stars you have knownย 
They'll all leave and accompany me
Emptiness, that's all you'll see
Nothing but darkness, forever
How everything used to beย

Wow Christopher I felt myself pulled through a timeless love, that ached for release. Beautifully penned, your imagery gravitates the reader deep into the heart of your intent, I believe. A universal love that feels adrift and losing hope. A wonderful debutย
