Perihelion – A Poem

No cogent conversation can work
to make me believe
that you are a star for a different sky,
and a soul from a different galaxy,
soothing some other soul
in the folds of some summer night,

for your warmth
is still glowing my world
and your thoughts are the reason
for my smile

And I know you will accost me soon
while I wait for you at the perihelion
