I traveled through the phases of the moon just to be with you<\/p>\n
Sorted myself through the stars and the zodiacs as Orion tried to trap me with his belt<\/p>\n
And Scorpio does what it must as it thrusted its stinger at my heart<\/p>\n
Cupid wanted no part in this<\/p>\n
He turned with his wings and flew beyond the Celestial bliss<\/p>\n
I wrangled Taurus down to the asterism of the big dipper and we both drowned our sorrows there<\/p>\n
Like all things, this infuriated Aries<\/p>\n
He rammed his head into my body and pushed me out of my melancholy<\/p>\n
The apathetic Libra just laughed<\/p>\n
While the conjoined twins of drama and comedy pulled me apart<\/p>\n
and flung pieces of me to the limb<\/p>\n
The gentle maiden of the Equinox gathered my remains<\/p>\n
and sewn me back together using her grains<\/p>\n
Aquarius and Pieces stood by and shooed the crab and lion away from my still life<\/p>\n
While a sure-footed goat with a fish tail opened my eyes<\/p>\n
Bailey’s Beads was but a touch nearby<\/p>\n
Where our love and embraces became lies<\/p>\n
I thought to wrong some rights and set my sights to go<\/p>\n
and braced myself upon the archer’s arrow as he pulled back his bow<\/p>\n
I traveled through the constellations for me<\/p>\n
In that century, I knew of physical pain<\/p>\n
But there was far more torture when your love pulled away<\/p>\n
Star-crossed lovers, binary as we could be<\/p>\n
Now each of us plummeting in our own galaxies<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
