Notes About The Poem

Her Space

She leaves bruises 
like galaxies on my heart. 
I look at her and I feel 
the distant stars in her eyes,
pulling me into her orbit.
Is the fact that I'm falling 
in love with her any big 
surprise?

She's the morning sun, and 
the evening star that shines 
and whose light guides my way. 
She comes and goes like a 
streaking comet, although 
I wish she'd always stay.

She is my night and when I'm 
in her space I can hardly breathe, 
her kiss steals all the oxygen. It's 
an attraction with no reprieve.

She pulls me to her and breaks
my gravity, I can taste the 
Stardust floating off her skin, 
her breath steals mine and I'm 
lost in in her constellation
making my head spin. 

She finally releases me to dream 
another day, of her and stars 
and galaxies and head spinning 
constellations oh so far away.
