To everyone, from dead love:
Shadow dancing on your timelines
You had your stars, and I had mine
Death and life flows together
Missing and togetherness too do shine
I could have wept, and maybe I did
The passing of the torch
From kiss to kiss, heart to heart
Speaking less and less of innocence
Youth felt her way to the supernatural
And I was there, among the ghosts
We were, floating about on energy
With our ideas and feelings left to the wind
There were no machine intelligences back then
Just loneliness, the bare symptoms of
My neural state, my memories, my naked subjectivity
Watching dying stars, reviving stars
Watching churning oceans, oceans disappearing
Planets populated, planets dying
Extinction happening, on such grand scales
I could not feel much for my own death
Like a mosquito in twilight, I had my fate
You had your stars, and I had mine
And maybe we knew each other for a time
From kiss to kiss, word to word
Home to home, children glow always
Our breath runs naked in the dark…
I felt the pain… I wish I could remove the pain of losing someone so dear to me.
It is, I guess, a part of life. We’re all alone and together in different ways, in different seasons. Though one cannot help but wonder if among billions, we are more alone than ever…
Being surrounded with people yet feeling so empty.. when asked how life is, an “okay” could only be answered as if it can suffice everything… Though it won’t.
Sorry to hear she is still missing. Xx
