I’ll ride this ship
all the way to
the moon.
Come dance with me.
Tea for two
and all the tears
you can drink.
I’ll serve my heart
on a silver platter.
Eat your fill.
The sun is cold.
I can hear her
ragged breathing.
Tiptoe across the sky
Shhhh…
Don’t wake the stars.
A stray kiss
caught in your web.
Let me go.
We’ll tumble around
the universe.
All but lost.
But always at home
with you.
