twins

star jeweled night the velvet sky
put under a hypnotic moon
streaks of light
gleaming reflections
shake the waters red and blue
to part the seas you are a part of me
although I am alone forlorn
for you I would capture destiny before the lions roar
to be without you is stardust gone to war
I remember you the years before I was born
when you were the field and I was the corn
when despair was rare and I your little lamb
when you were a woman and I was a man
as grateful as a hurricane to hear your voice
calling my name telling me how you’ve suffered
and I was wrong to be born a child of God
without my significant other.
