So Very Many Stars

By Bineshii

A mind fevered – yearning, pushing
Into the screen of streaming stars
An image shifting, resolving,
A vision coalesces, speaks:

"It is I"

Shaking, rising, embracing the com panel, leaning toward the vision:

"Parted from me and never parted"

Breath catching, fingers sweating, grasping for the vision, hearing:

"Never and always touching and touched"

Image of home…the sky, the sands, the circle, responding:

"We meet at the appointed place"

The vision wavers, returns with a promise:

"I await you"

Screen blackens and then
Streaming, ever streaming,
So very many stars
Perhaps, this time…too many…
