Retrograde is defined as a step-backwards

Dear Mercury,


Aligning the signs
There’s a place that I go in my mind
Where even with a missed text or call you’re not hard to find
Because I know where you are
You don’t cross my mind at all because you live in it
We got this connection where your soul is embedded with mine
And every time you want to give up I try to reach back in for my half of this soul tie
As a Gemini, I see both sides but neither side can understand you
My mind cannot replace you with another form of pink matter
So I gather all that I have in my head and even though it’s just me I still save a spot for you in my bed
Because to me, it’s us two and we almost crossed the line and make it three
Even if it’s only in my mind I close my eyes and I hug you
Cause I grew to understand that you were the one who needed it more than I do
You think that love is just the attention you receive and that is why they all fall through
And I so freely gave my all to you in the most genuine way
Falling is what I tried to refrain from doing because I knew there was a possibility you would never feel the impact
