Holding in a stunned sigh
I could watch her in orbit
every single night,
that window in the sky.
Light on
to invite us to look inside.
The dazzling sight
makes me weep in delight,
but then, so does the insight
that somewhere
there is someone with true beauty inside,
staring at this same light,
somewhere so far away.
I could watch her
shining so brightly.
The torch that shines down
on us nightly.
Whilst the sparkling crowd congregate,
to sprinkle their appreciation.
I don't take her beauty lightly,
it isn't something
we should ever downplay
but then neither is
the beauty that sits within
the person that sits watching,
somewhere so far away.
I could lay in all weathers
witnessing her majestic beauty sway
across the galaxy.
Transfixed thoughts
would evaporate away.
Along with all
of my defensive barriers.
As she slowly glides
across the grand canvas,
the almighty
black screen in the sky.
And I sigh
again, at the way those eyes
could be witnessing this same heaven,
from somewhere so far away
and I let those thoughts stay.
Deep inside.
Thanks for reading
