Double Stars

I never sought to be a star

There’s only room in the heavens for one

That would be you

I’m more a mellow, evening sun

The sky is the limit, but it’s not

Kids are fooled with a passing satellite

But I know what is reflection

And what fills my eyes with your starlight

Not twins but celestial boosters

Mysteries and histories weathered like a coastline

Your twinkling bursts shower the universe

With an infinite sea of wonderment in your shine
