infinite
Night is an infinite rotation of stars
Across a sky that outlines infinite black power lines
And radio towers, with a repetitive, slow blink
Like the eyes of a lightheaded, lusty lover
They blink
I watch the night with intrigued eyes and an open mouth
Mesmerized, desiring more
Desiring to be a part of it
You are my night; your presence envelops me whole
I could watch you for eternity in any place
Light makes me appreciate you more, makes me long for you
But you dazzle me most when there’s nothing but darkness
That’s when your constellations are revealed to me
Your truest self is shown
We are close, but not yet one
I have fallen in love with every single version of you
But that one is the one I want to wrap up and hold
Night is an infinite rotation of stars
Stars are an infinite rotation of matter
Living, dying, decaying, spreading, and reforming
We are infinite
I want to spend every night with you
Swallowed whole
I am far from my stars
But they are nonetheless mine
