Pining Heart - Sijo Trio
Pining away into the cosmic dust everyday
Faster than the second hand flies across the face of the moon
Changing its course in an elipse of untold counting.
Here lies the one that got nowhere with no one on the earth,
The burst of flames made the way that told its ending would be soon
Amongst the ashes of the forgotten teardrops dried crust.
Where Pluto goes comes the dawn of lifetimes on the earthly planes,
Two hundred forty eight earth years to be exactly right on time
For the birth death cycles of many hearts including mine.
