For a short time,
Supernova outshines galaxies;
It explodes and
Imprints images
Across Andromeda's face,
Overexposed across its gaze,
Blinds & Spills in all directions,
Up & Up. Down & Down. Around & Around.
I’d drag these regrets to the far-off reaches,
Just to be left speechless,
As we watch it outshine the Sun,
I would.
I forgive you, and myself too.
It was supernova, not meant to live
Long.
Forgiveness
Is like a Nebula’s Kiss,
It gives birth to new life
And leaves the past behind.
A star dies in supernova flame,
And the view from here is spectacular,
Don't miss it.

And leaves the past behind.

And the view from here is spectacular,
Don't miss it.
This poem is a reflection on past relationships with friends and lovers that did not last and the importance of forgiveness and moving on with your life after "the blast" of the supernova, as a relationship dies. We must remember, that although some stars die, others are meant to be reborn in Nebula.
