While We Were Waiting

While we were waiting for the stars to align,
The unchanging tide drew us in.
Wave after wave of reason
Surged the labyrinth of our minds
Making it hard to distinguish
Fears from legitimate truth. 

While we were waiting for their courses to collide,
We accepted the new beginnings,
Though wary of a celestial crash
That at any moment could collapse 
Our world, our connection, lost.

We waited in our silent symmetry
Wondering when the day would come
Where stars would burn and fall,
Yet far above they burned so bright,
Giving light to their very last,
While we were waiting.
