Interstellar Affair

My star-crossed lover, For eons we swirled through the galaxy congruent, gravity keeping us apart. Our journeys paradoxically parallel. Then two dimming stars unstuck, in the most extraordinary stroke of luck. Once torn apart by terrestrial variables, now uncrossed and together exuberantly powerful. This supernova I aspire to sustain, and expand exponentially, transcending the physical plane. As the moon affects the tides, you affect my smiling eyes. When I burn out you ignite my cool dark matter, Emanating warmth as surely as the sky is silent. Our love is an open universe ceaselessly unraveling endless promise. Together two dark stars can radiate light.
