until daylight apologizes

by - 6:09 PM

we've managed to connect stars into constellations
and feelings into words

and we've memorized the night sky 
based upon the location of the north star

and we are all moving,
changing.

we are running back home to tell everyone about our 
trip to paris. 

but just remember,

wherever you are, i am too
just put your thumb to the moon

and even though the sun returns too soon,
darkness comes back. 

aquarius, orion, cornelia boom, harold miner
up there already.

they're reminders always above our heads,
of the six feet beneath our own

 but i hope that someday, 
we will live among the skies too

 so the next time you look at the stars,
know they look back 

 making constellations of us too.
