Sunflower Goddess

i once wrote a poem for you
and then you were gone

no trace. no whisper. no cue.
no clue.

you worship the sun
always. always.

i am the moon
and tonight i always wait for you

my golden sheen
and my hundred stars are looking for you

when you have finally arrived
you are dead sunflower goddess

i bleed light
and so are the stars

they twinkle nothing but
signals of sadness
