my universe

lifetimes are like stars
forever reaching into the darkness
from a mysterious cosmic womb;
forever searching the void
for an end to its seemingly eternal emptiness;
forever exploring the uncertainty
for a place to rest.

lifetimes are like stars,
yet mine is but a moon
and knowing my desire
I orbit only you.

your embrace is my gravity;
your heart is my sunshine;
your love is my universe.
