Eye Light
May 5, 2014
Your lungs breathe
in the galaxy
and your chest fills
with the universe,
and when you speak
your words glide like
shooting stars over the night sky,
and your heart
pumps stardust through your veins,
and the light in your eyes
reflects in mine.
The sky blackens
in your eyes
when the stars burn out,
you look through me and
I didn’t see you flicker
out. But I know there is
life after death, because last night
I looked at the sky
while you slept and I still
saw the stars.
