When I hear you calling out for me
I feel your mass pulling me to safety

When I hold you under the pale moonlight
I feel your mass pulling me to safety

Please forgive me when I spin out of control
For my momentum eventually slows

And the wounded animal in me
Comes limping back to you


As the fiery sun slides past the event horizon its destiny is sealed
Doomed to dance in the arms of a singularity

As the star begins to unfurl and stretch
Towards an infinitely hungry center

The black hole begins to feed...

There was never a day that taught us patience
For we flutter towards commotion like fireflies

There is never a moment that erases
Our crowns of suffering though we cry and cry

And even apologies seem to float away
Like frightened clouds on a windy day

My heart is a star spinning upon the precipice of destruction
I battle each day of solitude with an abundance of weakness

Yet my life has a burgeoning capacity for love
For the day isn't over yet and there is still time for another kiss
