"And when I looked again, you were gone."

Light years away
I know you wear your own radiance
where a moon steals someone's blaze
I know you are huge and persistent
where a moon dress opaque on each passing day.
But do you know, unlike you,
that moon clutches my fist and walk with me
He may plum dark circles
but he manages to reflect me thoroughly.
You were million ages
better than the moon
But just like he conquered sun's glint
He invaded my heart too.
He was close, close enough to hug me
when the entire universe bridled up in its sleepy tone.
And you were far, so far that
when I looked again, you were gone. (far gone)
