"Stars Beyond Reach"

Cirawrites01


Stars beyond reach,
Shining in their own light,
But not mine to claim on this beach,
A distance stretching through the night.

Words are caught within my throat,
Conversations running on repeat,
These buried emotions will soon float,
As I sit on this empty street.

The universe—so big,
But yet my eye caught you,
It felt so real and quick,
I never searched or knew.

A galaxy within your soul,
And I'm a planet around a lost orbit,
Waiting to catch your lane whole,
Hoping this ride won’t make me split.

Amidst the chaos and blurred visions,
A single flicker, time slowing down,
In this moment, a perfect collision,
In heavy tides over me, I drown.

You are my milky way,
And I am a part of the vast space,
I will find you and commence play,
While time plays this slow race.

  • Soman Ragavan

    This is sure a successful poem, written from inspiration of a rare kind. We see the image of the poet chasing after the love of which he is a slave. He is caught in an orbit and keeps trying to rendez-vous with his love. From the earth, he has launched himself into orbit, in pursuit of his love that has gone away from him.

      Yes Sir absolutely right but I am a girl... it's alright though, my profile is an anime guy. But I wouldn't say she is a slave...

            A poem where the cosmos becomes part of the metaphor of chase. Lovely

              lovely combination of the earthly and the supernatural - i hope the bonding occurs soon

              • Cirawrites01

                Yes but that bonding is not going to happen because the people you love, you gotta let them go sometimes, it's like a dove locked in a cage once set free... Also thanks for reading my poem

                • NafisaSB

                  that is true, but do remember that if the bond is strong enough they will return even when set free, if they are meant for you
                  have a beautiful day
