Me (Part II)

It was always a lovely time looking at you
but now
i see our hearts
that were once to close
are now
so far apart

and the space creates a great pot of brilliant light
that stretches to across galaxies when we are away

but your light has been growing dimmer

and im trying to find the spaces that i once filled
like the empty spaces in my hands
but i think you let them fade
and im starting to become those empty skies
and im starting to see gaps in the lines
on the wrinkles on your cheeks
and people will walk on this earth
but their lights will not brighten mine like yours once did

all i wonder
is if youre just as empty as me
or if you just gave up
and the more i look at you
the more i realize
that youre as essential to me
as the spaces between stars
and i will not stop fueling the light with love
until i am shedding the last of my own light
on you.
