Use the stars for hiding places.

Use the stars for hiding places.

A Poem by Beatrice Mars

We've been playing at

War games,

Playing with fire,

Playing (off)

Each other

Throughout time, (and space)

Using the stars for hiding places.

 

We've been

Running (away from each other,

Towards a different us.) 

Running far and
Wide,

Running across skies,

Just to save each other,

Running so fast, so we don't fall.

 

But now, we slow

Our ragged breathing

And Breathe in

Star dust memories.

 

We just slow our breathing

And listen to time.

 

We slow our breathing

So we're in time.

 

We slow the beat of our hearts,
So we feel the same

Rhythm.

 

Across

The universe,

Across time
We roam

Together, forever   (Playing, running, breathing)

In rhythm.

glad i fell on this.
glad this fell on me !
I'm not sure what to say, i just really like it, anything that was written in brackets seems to fit perfectly. I can't tell you how much i like the form you've used. Looking forward to reading more !

i realllllllly like this. just the whole idea of stars as hiding places! it blows my mind.

"But now, we slow
Our ragged breathing
And Breathe in
Star dust memories.

We just slow our breathing
And listen to time."
