Do you ever sit and think
About what goes on above?
How something could happen
Within a blink

But it’s not like you can tell
Or see what goes on
Between the stars above
It must be so swell

This begs the question
What IS up there?
What could be looking right back at you?
Do you have a suggestion?

It rattles my brain
Turns my stomach
Pulls at my soul
I can feel the curiosity crawling through my veins

The everlasting void of our galaxy
There’s so much
Yet we know so little

i could give you the whole universe
but then i’d just be giving you yourself
ebony silhouettes painting a supernova
ink bleeding through a canvas of light
fragmented stars gleam in your eye
will you be the ruler of my sky

i could drown in your oceans of  stormy gray
lose myself in your forests so emerald green
you exist on the border between reality and not
gravity hits hard and fast
i could give you the whole universe
but then i’d just be giving you yourself

Stars are death galaxies across our sky, they’re hope and dreams, they are there when you just can’t stand one more day, they’re there to remember you that your existence can be beautiful.

It's scary how life can change
For now, I witnessed the sky fall
As I float in those galactic eyes
Anchor me down will you?
To the core of your gravity
May I land gracefully in your earthly embrace to kiss those rosey cheeks?
staring at the night sky,
stars are visible, twinkling so bright
and suddenly, an epiphany hits your mind
the universe is infinite
it makes us small but,
we have the brightest light.
inspired by the song Aurora Borealis by Bohnes

There’s so much pain in my heart
That it seeps through when I sleep at night
And when rivers flow
I can’t help myself to drown

I miss you everyday,
For I can’t see you
Even if you’re near
I’m torn apart
You feel so far away
My heart aches
Because I do this to myself

One thing I know for sure
Even if I’m two galaxies away
It doesn’t mean I’m gone
For I’ll always live in your heart
Because I’ll always be you  
Just don’t forget me
And when you need me the most
Just remember,
I’ll always be here

Vibrant streaks of green and blue and violet twist in your eyes, like a
beautiful galaxy and I want nothing more than to catch each shooting star and leave my wishes on your lips.
I'm not sure that this is a poem but rather a pretty thought. It was written in 2016.

It was rather beautiful the way
he put her insecurities to sleep.
The way he dove into her eyes
and chased away her fears
the way a tail chases it's
comet across a pitch-black sky.
Her eyes became a galaxy and
he could see the dreams she kept
coiled beneath her bones.

This poem was written in 2016.

You know, I love you to the farthest
Galaxy in our wide universe
And no scientist knows how far that is
No matter the distance they traverse.

I will love you til the sun turns white
And the stars begin to fade.
And when that time finally reached us
I'll even love you for a few more decades.
Meh
