Orbits
Love offers gifts-
a whisper in the dark’s embrace,
a gentle promise etched in silence,
a touch that lingers like dawn’s first light,
carrying hope beyond despair.
The Sun proclaims with fiery breath:
She lives because of me,
a blazing gift of life and warmth,
a love that burns with relentless passion,
illuminating every shadowed corner.
The Moon responds softly:
She endures because of me,
a silver glow in midnight’s quiet,
a resilient gift of gentle strength,
a love that learns to lose without fading,
finding beauty in the shadows.
And Earth, the silent witness,
turns always toward the Sun,
cradling the Moon in gravity’s tender hold-
a delicate balance born of love’s quiet strength,
a dance older than time itself.
Yet beneath this harmony,
rivalry stirs-a silent tempest,
not born of hatred,
but of proximity’s hunger,
a storm beneath the calm,
loves circling the same world.
The Sun’s devotion hardens into wrath-
fire demanding recognition.
Days grow merciless,
seasons fracture,
as warmth forgets restraint
and teaches Earth
that even chosen love
can scorch when taken for granted.
The Moon’s sorrow gathers weight-
a quieter fury.
Tides swell beyond their remembering,
oceans pull at their own edges,
as if gravity itself whispers
that being needed
is not the same as being loved.
Violence follows in shadow-
not always loud, but deeply felt:
a glance too fierce, a wound too raw,
love’s gift sharpening into blade,
leaving scars that learn to speak.
The after-effects linger-
not possession, but distortion:
days too bright, nights too heavy,
tides that remember what hearts forget,
echoes of love’s fierce, fragile dance.
Some loves create life.
Some forge balance.
Others, when they collide,
write stories etched in time-
tales of fire and silence,
of chaos woven with grace.
In this eternal dance,
love’s greatest gift
is not possession or control,
but the courage to see beyond the scars,
to find the sky within the storm,
to understand that love-
in all its fierce, tender forms-
is both the fire that burns
and the silence that heals.
For in love’s complexity,
we discover the truth:
light and shadow,
gift and storm,
woven into the fabric of our souls-
forever entwined,
forever free.
And here I am-
the Sun that burns to give,
the Moon that glows despite loss,
the Earth that loves, endures, remembers.
There you are-
Sun, Moon, Earth again,
mirrored in another sky,
carrying the same hunger for light.
We move toward each other-
inevitable, unafraid-
and when we collide,
it is not silence that follows,
but a brilliant blast of becoming.
Love explodes.
The universe expands.
And from the wreckage,
new stars are born.
