Please don't go
but you're the one walking
away from a love collapsing
in on itself
as a star
the heaviness grows
as the gravity of doubt pulls
air from our lungs
an exhausted gasping, hoping
some change will bring
a new light to the space
surrounding us
huddled together
in a darkness emanating from two
broken hearts held together
by will and denial and love
Are we no more than
those flickering lights
reckless toward the horizon
until extinguished?
Knowing that the source is
still there but unseen
and forgotten in time
only allowed a place amongst
memories collecting dust
and piled upon by the
too long days, too distracted
too fast
