Astronaut's Fear of Love

I'm scared to
blow this ember
into a flame
Afraid that it
might burn my
soul too badly
this time

But last night felt
right
for the the first time
in a long time
I could smile
without forcing it

And even though
I only laid
beside you for
30 minutes
I've been walking on air since

And then I remember
it was all a dream
As my capsule rockets
effortlessly through
the cosmos
