Hello!
First of all, italics are used mostly for emphasis, so italicizing a whole poem isn't really doing much, and kinda hurts my eyes.

I like how this is kind of a prayer to the universe, starting with "mays." You have a lot of really nice images here. There's something rather... ephemeral here, ethereal. You did a good job in creating the tone.

Honestly, I don't have many complaints. One big thing is that it almost seems a little too floaty-off-in-la-la-land. There's a lot of images, but the images don't really tell that much of a story and they don't seem to have an order or a purpose. I mean, they do, but it's hard to tell what it is. Does this make sense? The images seem unconnected, and I'm unsure as to your point. It sounds like you're trying to say "may our souls come together, and then drift apart." It's mostly the second stanza that I'm having this trouble with.
And honestly, that's all I have to say about this poem. It's a little forgettable because I can't clearly see it's point. Perhaps you might want to put a little more into it?
I hope this helped somewhat. Let me know if you have any questions about anything. I'd love to help you out!
Keep writing, your word choice is too lovely to let go to waste!

I like the thread. It reminds me of the thread of fate which couples are said to be bound by. I like the souls traveling. "limitlessness palette" reminds me of rainbows. I like the stars and universe. Everything is wonderfully described. "Clouds" definitely messed up the rhyme scheme, although. Actually, it doesn't rhyme at all in the second stanza or paragraph. BUT, I actually love it even though it doesn't rhyme.

Thank you :')
