Outer Space — A Poem on Distance, Dating, and Emotional Drift

Even in deep space,
your love holds me down,
Your embrace has weight,
and keeps me coming, back around

I was on track to be a tragedy,
before we collided, like stars
You give me gold, you give me gravity,
and it's more than fancy cars

I was a lonely planet on my own
Now you are the sun to my moon
I orbit you and feel at home.
I was in ruins, but I'm brand new.

No distance between us,
could break us, or tear us
apart.
Not miles, or minutes,
not even lightyears would be
too far for my arms.

You light up my galaxy,
our universe exists inside
my heart.

Closer than the others,
if I'm Earth, then you are my Mars.
You keep me human, keep me golden,
keep me green, and grounded.

Give me freedom, give me healing,
eclipse me, leave me astounded.
Celestially, you are the best for me,
I rest my chemistry, and let you
undress me.

Effortlessly, you impress me,
effervescent, I'm obsessing.
Astro know me, come explore me,
Supernova, satisfy my
celestial body, cosmo comet,
asteroid shower, like meteorites,
I stargaze, and you give me power.
