Little Blue Star

Little blue star
With the fragrance
Of a million lilies
Abloom together
With a touch
As soft
As an intoxicating lotus
Brushed gently
Against lips
I wish your voice
Would fill my world
With celestial music
Once again.

I strain my eyes
In the brightness
Of a full moon night
To discover
That in your place
Is now a memory.

Won’t you come
And take my hand
Like you did
All those lifetimes ago
Won’t you come
My earth soul
Begs
To be with you.

Forgotten feelings
From another life
Grips my heart,
And my mind
Is all aflutter
At the thought
Of thriving
In your shadow.

Mysterious flautist
Why don’t you
Come and make me yours
My sad heart
Is all aflutter.
