Stellar

I never returned to the dreams of your sleep -
you linger in mine.
You sit on the threshold, the back of my mind.
I’ll see you, in time.

You’ll shine from afar,
wherever we are -
each night a star.

I found you alone at the core, at the start -
a light in the dark.
I leave you with nothing and more than a part:
a hope, and a spark.

You’ll shine from afar,
wherever we are -
each night a star.

I keep coming back to the gates of your house,
and peer through the bars.
You’re in there, I know it, a light is inside.
I know where you are.

You’ll shine from afar,
wherever we are -
each night a star.
