The time it all seems so right

and everything will coincide

All the planets and stars align

We could do it right this time

We could reconnect

Lying on our backs we wait to revel in life’s strange gait

Fires for posterity

but ours is meant for brevity

We could reconnect

My wrists are scarred from false starts

From every time I move and stop

And now I’ve read the last chapter

and I don’t know what I’m after anymore

We could reconnect
