Stardust

In the lone sadness of an empty bed,
My mind cannot stop dreaming about you,
And the all pleasant things I wish I said,
But never had it in me to follow through.

You have always been the love of my life.
The beautiful woman who made me shine.
The world without you is a world of strife.
I sparkled like a star when you were mine.

My love for you burns like a yellow flame.
The warmth of your body makes the skies glow.
The twinkle in your eyes set Heavens ablaze.
From the depths of my heart, I want you to know…

I will dig into dirt below the Earth’s crust
And bring Galaxies of golden stardust.

This heartfelt love poem uses an appealing blend of intimacy and cosmic imagery. Its steady rhyme and quatrain structure give the speaker’s longing a lyrical, song-like flow, while images of yellow flame, shining skies, and golden stardust enlarge private devotion into something grand and radiant. The final couplet lands with a memorable, extravagant promise of love.
