Outer Space With You

and somewhere across the universe
i see you
your hand stretched out into the abyss
as you dance on jupiter 
but i’m too scared to grab hold 
if i do
i’ll fall into the galaxy with you
and time will speed up
just like my heartbeat 
as we float in the sky
reminiscing on the days when we were stuck on earth 
because your eyes are the stars
while looking into them
i have created a parallel universe for myself 
and when your smile forms into a perfect crescent moon
i will remember why i leaped into outer space for you
