Two Stars

Separated, as one star is to another
Time and space, two beacons of light
Longing to join as one.

Darkness between; it is cold, lonely.
Heavy gravity spins them around each other
Endlessly.

Planets orbit, and come between,
They are still within sight of each other.
So far away.

Forever part of the same constellation
Patterned in the same Universe
Reaching.
