orbiting



a grey rock hanging in the sky

all he does is turn counterclockwise

around her blue earth planet,

it was almost like he’d planned it


and yet he’s so bright at times

in the dark he’s her source of light

shines upon her dead, cold surface

makes her unbelievably nervous


he’s full of craters, every one

a scar, showing her a dream’s tomb

for him, she grows fields of flowers

so he will find her pretty for hours


the layer of ozone thins up around her

finally, she realises that he is just a mirror

he’s also another dead, cold surface

just reflecting the sun’s light, lip service


even then, he still has such power

changing levels of her saltwater

when he turns in close for a kiss

she’s blinded by the total eclipse



thank u papa for the picture <3
