Far Away

I folded memories of you to keep them safe.

The corridors of my mind carry echoes of your voice.

I pray time does not erase.

Within the chambers of my heart, you remain.

Yet upon my skin.

I can find no trace,

for you have only ever been to me, a satellite in the sky dancing with the stars.

Something to gaze at through a telescope, as far out of reach as Jupiter and Mars.
