Falling From Stars

I ache for the universe’s touch
A galaxy caressing my dreams
Whimsical nightmares ridden by
Stars
Consulting constellations for the wisdom I lack
And I fall among the clustered hive mind
Shooting mere metered doubt
Down  and
with Artemis’s blessing
I belong to Orion now
But I drip back into the atmosphere
Steady now! Nevermind the tears, shed the fears!
Hold on to hope,
the celestial rope.
You’ll never be too far now
If your aim is off, you’re still
Falling from stars.
