This is an ode to my stardust lover
Bathed in robes of white dwarfs,
wearing a crown of yellow supergiants.
She smiles and calls my name,
and her eyes draw me in like black holes.
I met her deep in the embrace of the cosmos,
in my suit of sky-blue and milk-white eyeshadow.
She giggled, taking my hand to drag me along.
Supernovas lit my heart ablaze.
How could I not follow her?
She leaped from solar system to solar system,
leaving a trail of eclipses in her wake.
I tried to match her footsteps,
tried to turn planets into trampolines,
but I ended up tripping on Saturn’s rings.
And with a girl with a hot blue star belt,
I just waited to be left behind.
I was nothing compared to her, really.
I didn’t have a crown on my head.
I barely had any stars on my suit.
But before I could pull myself up,
she kneeled beside me and smiled.
I tried to protest, but she just stroked my arm.
She pulled me up, wiping off the stardust.
Then, it was her hand in mine, steady forward march.
We now sit together on five-pointed stars,
making our own constellations,
naming them as if they were our children.
She retakes my hand with that same giggle,
and my heart still burst
