fate's
    song

fate brought us together

i like to believe that on the very day we met

the stars aligned in perfect formation

our souls walked down the spiritual path 

of a holy forest while we were asleep

dipped a toe in

a toe out

and fell in all at once

where they bathed each other's backs with 

the desires of their hearts

echoing

like music to their ears

they danced.

​

fate ripped us apart

it was abrupt and left me with unfamiliar thoughts

of experiences my soul felt that night

what do i have to say to you 

and how do i say it?

can i pull the words out of the sky and steal them from god?

i've asked him to put them in the lines of my palms but

he burns them instead

​

there is no moonlight in this forest

for me to find my way home to you

i cannot follow the trail of ashes

to ashes

much like our lost love that's dust

to dust.
