They say we’re made of stardust,
and we don’t fall in love; we fall in lust.
They say this brevity is heavenly.
They say this brevity is our clemency.
But it’s a boundary
between you and me.
They ask if I believe in the seconds that change everything,
and I say I do,
but I believe in us, and I believe in you.
I say
we’re made of sundust,
and we fall in love, and we fall in lust.
This longevity is heavenly.
It’s you and me and the clemency that we won’t need.
Our own forever.
