My consciousness afloat in the stiff air of darkness
Ever-expanding loneliness permeates my body
My chest stings, even from just your platonic caress
I can imagine light, yet I can never see
An ember emerges at the corner of my dimmed universe
All at once, with my soul brightened, spirit aroused, vision restored,
She gleams like a star, sparkling in my cosmos,
Resurrecting my hope that’s long gone
Her fervent touch of passion, my one and only Eros,
My universe’s long-awaited dawn
The purity of our bodies against the ink of night
My eyes of darkness illuminated by her star-kissed lust
Immense heat amalgamates between us
My blazing sun, you’re a dazzling sight
Yet a spark is in its nature perpetually fleeting
I become yet another expendable asteroid
Knocked by a pendulum that is endlessly swinging
Towards ephemeral ecstasy or another eternal void
Perhaps I am once again toyed
A desperate cat chasing a flitting spotlight
Her mind would baffle even Freud
I reach then she flickers away from my empty chasm of night
In her departure, my hopes and visions were destroyed
Buried at an unknown sacred site
This time darkness engulfs my totality, now devoid
Of love, leaving me with only pain and fright
