Wanting, Waiting, Wilting

Radioactive

This bond we share

Burning drives

Yet close and bare

Our skin, heated and alive

Melting the gap between space and time

Always seething, I can’t get enough

Humans have companionship, but we have love

Brighter than the sun, colder than Titan

The moon only shows us one side

Because we scarred the other

Unlike any other, this fire consumes all

Forever together

Live and die, Rise and fall

Wanting, waiting, wilting

The love consumes the very best of us

We hate the bond we share

Because it’s human, and that’s never enough
