Aubade to Inevitable Sunrise

..

What remains is stardust
and a last must
-ered sigh.

These streets are full
of our goodbyes:
that corner, this shadowed
doorway.

If I wanted to find you
again, could I?

Would you plea Polo
to my Marco, mark
my calls with your
returning?

The moment I’m done
yearning for this vast
imperfect sky, I
will beg my weary lungs
to bring you home.

  1. I love this! Especially the Marco/Polo part. Awesome.

  2. This is very touching – as it could be about the fleeting sunrise or about a departed loved one. I, too, loved the Marco/Polo part!
