We came from different worlds
searching for a place to belong
in this vast universe of ours
forever, connected by a higher
source of energy...
You 're a star searching for a spot
amidst the constellations
I am a dreamer navigating
the night sky searching for
a heavenly star....
Why, oh why can't we find a place
in between our worlds where we
can burn bright, dancing together
in prismatic light....
vault of heaven offers tranquility
two hearts beating to infinity
poetic sounds and lyrical songs
igniting fiery desires of the soul
in the velvet softness of dreams
Sentinel moon stood silent, watching
from phase to phase wondering
would we ever let our dragons
free, to soar in linear space
finding the point of connection
Why, oh why can't we find a place
in between our worlds where we
can burn bright, dancing together
in prismatic light....

thank you for visiting
I love the way you describe this like two dreamers trying to connect. It reminds me of a ship metaphor where people a trapped in parallel courses.
ReplyDeleteThis is incredibly beautiful!❤️ Especially love; "Sentinel moon stood silent, watching from phase to phase wondering would we ever let our dragons free."❤️
ReplyDeleteThje dreamer down below, the star up so high and distant.......and a galaxy of possibilities between. The place in between is often filled with longing. Beautiful, True.
ReplyDeleteYes, sometimes it is so sad when people are apart, and it seems there is no way that they can come together. I feel bad for the lack of connection, when the desire seems there. And thank you for your comment on my poem of "Hope." Glad that you found hope and rescued a turtle as well. That made me smile. Whatever we do for the least of these...........
ReplyDeleteA place where the two worlds touch and they can be together...
ReplyDeleteSurely such a place exists, even if only in our imaginations!
ReplyDeleteTwo trying to connect in that special place sure can be rough, but doable as they dream away.
ReplyDeleteLove this. I perhaps read too much into it and saw, beyond two lovers, two ways of being and thinking, and a yearning for unity. Regardless of interpretation, I love your words and thoughts.
ReplyDeleteLove it … particularly the form you've used to great advantage here. I am speaking, of course, of the repetition of the italicized verse, which I thought was very ingenious, creative and compelling. You really have a talent for using repetition so wonderfully well, Truedessa.
ReplyDeleteIt's so frustrating knowing the one you love is out there, but you can't ever quite seem to connect.
ReplyDeleteYour'e a star ... I am a dreamer... searching for a place in between. Such a beautiful concept. Well done.
ReplyDeleteLife is all about compromises not about "Me!" A good relationship is accepting that we are all different and to share and care.
ReplyDeleteSadly sometimes love does not conquer all. Sometimes we love so much that it hurts and still there are no solutions and a middle road to meet at. Beautiful poem.
ReplyDeleteA very well written poem with a soul of its own. Wish the two dreamers could meet forever..........
ReplyDeletethat in between place is the hardest journey of all...bkm
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking s star crossed lovers. A mythological tragedy.
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful words and phrases, albeit sad.
ReplyDeleteThe longing shines through the separating dark, and lets us see right into the speaker's soul... Why, indeed? Two who want (especially each other) should be able to dance and be what they want in dream and in word and... everywhere.
ReplyDeleteThe pleading inquiry is still singing in my head.
