Coronation

Jupiter
The king of kings
Is on their way back
3rd time in fact
I am aware of that
And know what that means
A year of fate is what the cosmos deems
Here I am
Without a queen
No need to wonder
Or feel sad for being denied
Why I am without is no surprise
Cause I focused on me while I climbed
These last twelve steps
Dog to Rooster
Only thought of you
Little did I do
To honor
Or show my love to you
Just acted strange
Only reached for you while deranged
Promised someone I’d change
Never did
So on my coronation
It will be me standing there
Scepter in hand
But no woman
Crown of jewels that shines
No one glad to call me mine
Mastered both space and time
But the closest I came to you are these rhymes
I am alone
But only sometimes lonely
This life is for me
And a part of it you will always be
Just one step left
I can see the top
Too late to even consider I stop
Although I walk alone
Towards the pinnacle
The throne
Not a lot that I own
Just my feelings
Just my being
If I’ve missed out on anything
It’s you
Because I was too busy doing what I do
Things that concern none but me
My thoughts I hold secretly
But feel for you so desperately
Think longingly of things heavenly
As I’ve climbed
Mostly focused on mine
Even if you were trying to get my attention
I missed it
And my love I failed to mention
I can’t fail this test
Please professor may I have an extension
Unfortunately
It does not work that way
I had to keep climbing
No time to delay
So on I went
For this life is what I was meant
This walk alone
To my palace
My heavenly throne
