Albedo
The sun rises over the Arctic
A huge star of warmth
Full of unspent love
Burning itself for the whole
It said hi with no reply
Shine as it may,
the cold wouldn’t go away
So it set at the end of the day
Returned tomorrow with the same rays
I never wished for global warming so much
As I cross the sky hoping to melt
The cold in her tundra to a belt
My delusion is so high
Because even from a million miles
She still caught my eye
I know we were never meant to be
But I’m not asking for a lot
If one degree is enough to graduate
Then I just need one of yours to fluctuate
Let me in, let me see, don’t let me be
Because I am not a being
Let me be because I am a beam
I am not a creature; else I would
adapt to your feature
To your harsh conditions
To your unlawful restitution
I don’t need my love back
I need it in your veins
reflecting my heart’s crack
If I could describe my pain
It would be boundless like the dark
Our communion would be an ice age
Our love is already a movie
and I am not Blue Sky
Happy endings are where you lose me
I could reign as sun, as aristocrat
Yet if you were an acorn, I’d become Scrat
Is this about Icarus?
Yes, my love is dangerous
But what is love
If not preposterous
If you had wings, would you-
Because if I had limbs I would-
So as I illuminate your white desert
My heart breaks a little
But my light reflects for albedo
Why do I burn but you stay frozen
My light golden and my heart swollen
Maybe I only see myself in you
Snow was always the color of the sun
And mirrors don’t stay for love
They stay because they can’t run
