No One

No One

A Poem by Simone V. Min

Ablaze with everything I am
Not a mere twinkle reaches you
One of countless nameless others
Will all that remains ever be
enough for you to behold me?

I never can hold a candle
to your adored moon--your light in 
the coldest and darkest of nights
If only I were as close, would
I be worthy to hold your gaze?

I hear past your ethereal voice
Hidden between the sincere words
and the enchanting melodies
lies your heart--confused, wandering,
lonely; adrift this emptiness

Existing in one galaxy
Born hundreds of light-years apart
Dreaming of holding, loving you
Will our orbits ever cross?
Or are we destined to be lost?

Having given in to waiting
Burning 'til darkness takes over
Now all astir because of you
The light you shine, the pain you hide
Must I forget ever knowing?

A lifetime in obscurity
Awakened to your existence
Knowing I can never reach you
Aching, desperately wanting
Out of reach--be still, be still
