Our Names Across the Sky
If they could sense your heartbeat
They would frame it
in the annuls of their minds
And they would tap and hum to it
In complete reverence
of a lifetime rhyme
If they knew what to wish for
They would forsake the grief held in gory
lore
Dress in suggestive clothes,
make one wish for
more
And write poems, songs
and charming metaphors
If they could see me with you
They would bow and plead
To fathom a sign they could too
Someday
have a love to keep
