You are like the sky

You are like the sky

Immense

Beautiful

And freckled with clouds

Because you are shy

Blushing pink, purple, gold

When I tell you this

A sunset across your cheeks

Reaching

As you wane into night

Your heart weeping

Moon-brimmed constellations

Of unsaid words

Like starlight

Arriving eons too late

Far after our goodbye

Happy Lives

A Poet’s Last Stand
