Stars
you laid
at my feet
as promised. Called it
love
Love
remains immeasurable
however many stars
you may pluck from
skies
Race
against clocks
I try hard
to be ahead of
time
Time
waits not
wants not me
relentless its movement against
itself
Written for David’s W3 where POW, our dear Sadje has asked us to write an elfchen.
