Five Points of a Star

Figure like Orion’s belt An extended arm to the left Points the way to her heart To the source of the force field Hair in a drag like a comet Her direction anticlockwise like an orbit Gaining speed the closer she gets to my heart Traversing space faster than a lightning bolt Moving light years from left to right The sentinel to my darkest nights She’s made of nothing but dark matter Heaven sent like a sealed love letter Understanding beyond age and maturity Both feet firmly grounded in victory Unshaken she’s the centre of me Unmoved by prophecy a powerful deity Her being shining from head to toe Bearing more than just a simmering glow Pointing from the centre of the cosmos In all directions forever as photons
