Stellar
March 2, 2016
She was made of outer space
From the stars speckled
Beneath her eyes
To the black holes
In the center of her irises
And the ancient rings of saturn
Placed along her knuckles
But she saw herself plain.
Her thoughts were a series
Of intricate constellations
Her mind itself was an
Ever expanding universe
That was constantly growing
To infinite ends.
But she saw her thoughts as a bore.
And when she closed her eyes
She saw thousands of stars
Shining through her eyelids
But she merely thought of them
As plain old specks.
