#meteor
This heart is a meteor & you are a dream
Entranced by space dust & frozen air
Foreign elements catch aflame in transit
Black holes & supernovas explode
As this meteorite decends
I drop from the dark heavens just to be closer to you
Fading memento of our warm embraces I hold in the depths of my frigid soul
Earthbound gravity bottoms out
Falling headlong into a sky of disaster
Striped gardened fields & waterways
Pull the focus further into view
Second by grueling second the meteoric face begins to burn into inferno status
A tail of fire trails across the thinning atmos
Even Hell's breath would cease if only for a moment
Just to see you once again, my Earthling Friend

I'd sell my own bones
For sapphire stones
'Cause blues your favorite color

your love feels borrowed starlight now,
dimmed at the edges,
faded from lighting skies
that were never mine.
the nicknames you gave me
don’t sound like constellations to me anymore,
just fragments of old galaxies,
still glimmering with the fingerprints of those who came before.
and when you speak them,
the universe inside me winces.
the bitter taste of dust from your other worlds - other women,
clinging to the syllables
i once thought were sacred.
your touch is a meteor now.
beautiful,
but falling too fast
and leaving a sickness in my body.
and yet…
i keep looking for your light
the way the moon follows after the sun,
even knowing its glow
was never hers alone.
i hurt,
but i still turn toward you
like a planet bound by old gravity,
hoping you’ll be the one
to pull me back into orbit
and not let me drift
any farther into the dark.

we heard them talking
about a meteor shower
expected later that night
highly anticipated
set to accompany
the rust red supermoon
that we caught
following us home
lay down upon blankets
a meagre effort
to provide at least
a little comfort
while we witnessed
this astral magnificence
the significanceof which
none of us was certain
childishly imagining
a spectacle from
the dazzling of shooting stars
trailing tails like fireworks
pointing in wonder
appearing briefly
before burning out
instead
we found ourselves staring
up at one of those
countless spots of white
slowly
unenthusiastically
drifting across
the stratosphere
it could be a meteor
maybe just an aeroplane
or simply a twinkling
trick of the light
yet still we watched
without excitement
without direction
without relevance

scattershot strikes as a shattered damocloid
sending warning ripples through clouds
glimpses of sundered villages atop cumuli
not a gasp among the crowd

I looked up
and saw the meteors
in my daddies eyes
fiery dreams
that had been held up
by a wish and a prayer
I saw his disappointment
that the show ended too soon
but perhaps one day
there'll be a time
for us to shoot the moon

she pins stars to the ceiling of my dreams ☉ and makes milkshakes of meteor dust and moonshine ☉ in my day, she sleeps swaddled in a billowing blue counterpane of boundless reflection ☉ in my night, she dances a path to eternity ☉ leaving me breathless and in awe of her spiralling splendour

The heartbroken girl smiled after ages...
For the meteor shower up in the dark sky...
Across the hillside taught her...

Hit me with that difference
between nodes and cores
and processors, between
being me and being sure.
Tell me again how to
calculate it, I missed the
first time, don’t shout--
remind me the difference
between comets and asteroids
and meteors, and how computers
and space are not the same
because to me it’s all voids--
the Perseids could be anything
as long as I get to watch
something else burn as it falls.

If the galaxy came down in a tempest
And all the stars fell in the rain
I’d bottle up a supernova
And send it off your way.
Every morning during breakfast
I’d drink the Milky Way
And if ever the galaxy falls anew
We can barricade the storm drains.

When we talk about meteor shower
There are so many perspectives to look unto
But there is one perspective that I really like
And that is showing its brilliance
In a very short time
Yet it lingers to our hearts
Jumping our souls up
Deeply appreciating how beautiful night is
Be that kind of meteor shower in other people's lives
Give a tiny spark in their lives
In anyway you want
And I assure you
That person,
Will appreciate how beautiful life is

Baby, we're a meteor
and we killed the dinosaurs.
We scorched the Earth and
turned all that was
into ash.
Time has passed,
and not much has changed.
To this day,
I find myself
studying the fossils
and wandering
what could have been
if we had landed smoothly.

I soar
like a meteor
directly into your heart
but the closer I get,
the more I begin to crumble
and lose myself to you.
Smaller and smaller
until I'm but a pebble
barely making a noise
upon your window.

It was the middle of the night when the power went out.
My body
accustomed to an ambient electrical hum
refused sleep.
I got up, and you followed
just like always.
We walked to the top of the hill where we lived
at the time
We've moved four times since that night.
We walked,
your collar's gentle sonance
conflicting with the silence.
When we reached the peak
we stood,
our small world lit only by the moon.
We beheld the great expanse
of the shy quiet stars
that usually hid behind the light pollution.
The milky spill of a spiral galaxy,
where we lay spinning on its periphery,
backlit the countless trails of fire courtesy of the Perseids.
And I thought
there have been more nights without street lights
than nights of human history.
These flaming trails of ice and dust,
these remnants of comets,
would exist despite those of us lucky enough
to bear witness
that night the power went out.

The world has stopped spinning.
God is going to toss a stone,
And it is going to change everything.
Change does not wait for anyone,
And it is not going to wait for you.
God is going to toss a stone,
Watch it crush your bones.
Feed us to the maggot queen.
We will carry her eggs,
And when they hatch,
They will eat the nest.
There will be nothing left
The beasts of the forests,
And the fowls of the air.
Shall devour us.
The ***** of the earth,
Shall be burnt in a devouring fire,
And swallowed up by the earth's crust.
There will be nothing left of us.
If we continue to live like this,
Then we are going to die like this!

If you ask me, he lit the match that set the Moon on fire
It’s not a myth; I was there, when I had no home
And I walked in Saturn’s ring rain for so long it sloughed off my skin
I marched, trying to flatten the crater I’d made
Because I was ashamed of it
I was the last meteor to hit his heart; the loudest
But that was so long ago
The quietest revolutions are usually the most violent
If you ask him, I smelled like Genesis and Revelation from the inside
******* insatiable
I slathered honey on my cheeks and boiled my blood
so hot until my arteries turned charred black
I licked my wounds from the impact and discovered just what the hell was poisoning me
If you ask me, I didn’t know him last night and I won’t know him on the last night
But my God, he inspires me

I am a meteor
Not for you to enjoy
Because you are the atmosphere
And I would burn up for getting too close
As I pass by
I see you smile deep in your sleep
A smile that lights the canyon lines
And I wonder who you are dreaming of
As I pass by the second time
You are on your porch, glass of wine at hand
I had to hold back every desire
And not to race to the front of your door
As I pass by the last time
You are in someone's arms
I wonder if I have to dive down to earth
Burning up doesn't seem so bad now

On most nights the sky is my sanctuary
I feel safe and still
Laying under the stars
Meteor showers
Leave me refreshed; inspired
Engulfed in the beauty of our universe
Not tonight
I feel intimidated
By the empty spaces
Between the stars
It reminds me
Of the empty spaces
In my heart
I look to the sky
To find peace of mind
My celestial sanctuary
Not tonight
All I see is chaos
As streaks of light
Chase each other through the sky
My mind is crumbling
Bit by bit
With each falling star

Watching meteors
Streak across the sky
Sparks the realization
Even things falling apart
And combusting all around you
Can be beautiful

Let's burn down the bridges
and shootup the stars
wondering if, we'll ever get far
Dragging our tails
our feet through the mud
washing our hands, covered in blood
The world trying to **** us
Hawking told us too leave
this is something, I truly believe
Ever the end is nigh and near
comet, pandemic return
bacterial death or simply, too burn
Pack up your bags
search all that you know
no way to get there, nowhere to go

Tell me that it's love that i'm feeling.
if it's not I fear my heart can't take much more.
I can't take my eyes off you,
yet i know the reason I won't leave is in your eyes.
I know it's love that I'm feeling,
even though we haven't been together in so long.
Your eyes still sparkle the same,
like watching a meteor shower
I'm caught in awe.
I swear you've never looked so good
so much better than anyone should,
after they tore away my heart.
I can't take my eyes away from you still.
If I survive another night,
I know that I can get over you.
I once had that lovin' feeling from you,
but now I'm gone still dreaming...
still dreaming of those meteor showers.

Rocks go by
they bounce, and fly
In and out
of atmosphere
Larger stones
that think us home
Crash, and burn
and die
Every day, adventure
as another whizzes past
May not know, when, or where
but blast it all to hell
You can be **** sure
we'll all know
Just what happens
last
