You Belong To Me

You Belong To Me

By Connie James

In mine melancholy
I shall write my phrases
My verses of love...
Feeling your loss in my life
I compare thee to andromeda
The loveliest star to mine eyes
Out of reach to me beyond my firmament
To reach to touch the stars in your eyes
Glistening in my darkest of skies...
But you are as distant as the Sun the Moon
The planets all aligned before me
Might as well be Uranus Pluto and Jupiter too
And Neptune in his element
Watching you...
Confounded I'll be if I'll ever see you
Amongst those stars...
Missing you!
As I write my saddest phrases in my mind
It was written in the stars,
You belong to me!
But lost you'll ever be if
reach I cannot those stars 
Scintillating upon my skies
Like fairy lights dancing blinking,
in the distance...
My light love my god you were
O' my darling!
What chance had I!
Wherever you are wherever you'll be
In my heart embers will always be burning 
Extinguish will never be!
Opening my window, letting the night in
In my hands holding this flickering candle
Exuding the faintest of light
To just about see! 
As I write upon my mind in melancholy
My saddest verses killing me
In silhouette, I see you in my darkest hours
Searching you in the eyes of my mind
Blind will I ever be, if
Before the rising, of the Sun
Unfurling before my eyes like a bud
But then, will I see starlight glistening
Ascending your eyes
In the distance!
