Constellate


for maybe time never forgets

stars can be a sad love story
scattered in a stirring of dust
but it is my lullaby just for one
across a blue suede night
when you look at the moon
do you see the same one

for time never forgets

"I'm so hard to handle
I'm selfish and I'm sad."
— Joni Mitchell

The moon is one of the most powerful love energy meeting points, I think.

Beautifully melancholic, dear Helen.

Love,

Dear Helen, we must be looking at the same moon right now, because its trying to reflect all of your radiance to the heavens, but even the moon can't shine that bright.

Lovely to read you again.

Happy Valentines Day.

i have wondered that wonder too
about synchronized sunsets, does the
desired one see the colors in my eyes

But we can forget time... and hear a song of hope from stars that once shared sadness. *S* And I can get lost in your words. *S*

somehow I think we all see the same moon.... but our eyes and heart often wonder if the same thoughts are remembered...

we are shaped by what we feel....
well done ma'am..
