Two Stars: We Didn’t Find Each Other



Two large stars, outer space, new galaxy, no humans, no people, wide view

A poem about two people being drawn toward each other goes…

I have to call you lost to say that we found each other.

When I met you, you knew exactly where you were and that it wasn’t where you want to be.

I discovered today I’m not where I want to be.

We’re not lost, so we didn’t find each other.

Stars have their own gravity.

You and I met in motion

Floating, traveling stars.

I’ve asked you twice:

Where did you come from?

And twice I realized my gravity brought you to me.

I want to hear your voice and see your face daily because of your gravity’s pull on me.

I’m OK with that. Let’s lean in.
