A Possession of Stars

so cherished you are
a possession of stars
the galaxy's mass
confined in my heart

so cherished the pride
a sky open wide
folds in a pocket
soft in my side

So cherished the bliss
a ocean's abyss
weight of the deep
contained in a kiss

so cherished the night
all mountains of height
bend over trees
witness the sight

so cherished you are
possession of stars
the galaxy's vast
space in my heart
