Poetry- Binary Planets

Comment and concrit. I think there’s something a little off here? :D

Binary Planets.

Binary planets revolve
around each other
with one face
eternally basking

in the other’s
dark.

Unwittingly, you
pull me in your
silent little
orbit, gravitationally.

Revolving at
the speed of humid air
per heartbeat-
a poisonous

tango.
Binary planets.
You show one face
to me,

And I to you.
One, just one
face, will be
the sum total

of everything
we are, and could
ever be.

We cross paths
at untimely moments,
one eclipsing
the other,

drenched by
the stars at the
command of light-
I orbit around
you

When you begin to
eclipse me

again.
