The Us Below

A billion burning suns

Calmly do

As they did before

Like me and you

Sitting in their place

Bound, but years apart

Stubborn as we are

With matters of the heart

Science, God and you

All agree

We've become something

We weren't meant to be

Paths run parallel

Here and up above

Distance held by hearts

Afraid to open up

Yet even though

Our love burns slow

It warms me

And all around

Sight and sound

Inform me

That we have found

A common ground

Like the stars

Why must we be

Eternally

Alone?

A finely diamond sky

Jewels in everglow

Illuminates the distance

Between the us below

Me here

You there

And in the middle

The frozenness of fear

Yet still we've found

A common ground

Like the stars

Why must we be

Eternally

Alone?
