I left your spaceship
No longer your captive
I’m a drifting star on my way to better
Making a home on other planets
The stars will catch me
And we will dance in the constellation as I forget to connect dots of the spell you had me under.
You can tempt with your coyness
Your sly glance is crafty and alluring
But I’m not interested.
I used to see the galaxy in your every step
Your eyes used to reflect the universe and your touch sent shivers into my dreams of cosmos, and a false belief that you were my partner in this space exploration.
The truth hit like an asteroid—I’m a futuristic creature you weren’t brave enough to discover.
It’s okay
The new moon is approaching
You too will dance in a meteor shower
No longer your captive
My blood is a crashing tidal wave against the cliff you carelessly hung me from
But I didn’t fall.
Inhaling the truth and beauty of my eternal light
I floated into space you don’t see.
