Caught in the wires (2014)

 

I hear the theme music

For the first Star Wars movie

In my head and think of her,

In a galaxy far, far away,

some remote place

to lick her wounds,

not knowing if she will

every return and

what she will do

if she does,

our lives caught up

in this odd cycle

like party balloons

that briefly touch

before each drifts away

some caught up in wires

some fading into the blue

onto some fate unknown,

we touched and parted

she’s off into space

to resolve whatever

it is that haunts her,

trying to heal,

even as I,

caught in these wires

of reality,

is haunted by her.
