A primal inertia has held us together.
I dream of a time where we collided,
when we danced together in a molten tango,
a violent waltz of heat and fury.
As our heavenly bodies fell into each other,
we shone a light into the darkest of worlds.
You governed my forces,
shaped all I was ever to be.
A gift of enduring stability,
a womb, a cradle,
a playground.
but now,
a heavy force,
a heavenly force,
a gravity,
that which pulls us ever further apart.
I have all the power of this world but still...
still I can not hold you.
With every passing moment you grow more distant,
Your face, as I will always remember it, is frozen in time.
But still you shine on,
You give light to the dark of my night,
You give hope to the life that I hold.
You are my companion in time.
You are my distant love.
I am the earth,
and you,
you are my world.
