I waited for that same sun

Note 157:

I waited, as if another sun might rise and set again after those long, whole five minutes.

There was only the moon.

I left,

I thought I could wait just one more sleep.

Then another.

And another.

It ran on repeat.

Sometimes, I even wonder if it will take forever to reach the steady state where your heart equals mine— no more, no less, perfectly aligned. The energy is high, but the distance is far too great for the two to truly collide. And still, no product has been made. Just the reaction   that never quite stayed.
