FOG

I count the satellites that circle lonely skies
Each orbit like a promise bent by gravity
Your shadow walks the corridors behind my eyes
A quiet constellation only I can see

Across the fog, across the void, I breathe your name aloud
A lighthouse in the nebula that keeps me from the cold
My love is wider than the hours that spin around the clouds
It’s gravity, it’s stardust, it’s a story to be told

I walk where fog and starlight mingle at the seam
A shoreline made of whispers, gray and edged with gold
Your letters folded in my pocket keep me from extreme
Each sentence like a planet, warm and carefully rolled

Across the fog, across the void, I breathe your name aloud
A lighthouse in the nebula that keeps me from the cold
My love is wider than the hours that spin around the clouds
It’s gravity, it’s stardust, it’s a story to be told
