I revolve around you like the Earth around the Sun and the tic-toc tic-toc of my heart is one revolution with every blink of the eye and one orbit one day at a time. I spin so fast that I make my own rings, from the air like Saturn and Neptune. I am dizzy and giddy at the sound of your voice with Mercurial shoes, ready to run to the ends of the Earth- for you. |

Written while listening to Landfill by Daughter (just inspired by the background music of the guitar and drums and vocal's harmonies after 1 minute in, not inspired by the lyrics)
"One orbit one day at a time" refers to taking things one day at a time and trying to survive the maelstrom of happiness and longing (and aching) just one day at a time.
