there is an infinity to us
the space between our lips
or the time between kisses

my love for you has no boundaries
no planet or galaxy or
universe
could hold us in place

and we can be a moment in time
and we could be nothing
but nebulas
clouds of stars and ice

and when we burst
imploding and exploding
we will make the gods cry
in the beauty of us

and stardust

and infinity

I slip in and out of my own mind
and often enough
I get caught in the empty spaces
between my thoughts
and sometimes it is peaceful
that moment of quiet
but when I find myself stuck
in that nothingness
and that silence
there is a stillness that I cannot outrun
and it is cold
and empty.

and then I remember
that feeling anything
is better than this
