I am the Star Englufer
June 30, 2016
Dear God don't I miss you
I think as I engluf all your stars
Extending to you beyond this frame
Beyond my rings of time
Where did my favorite star go?
I never englufed that one, I saved it
Or so I thought
It was a star of passion, of pure love
It dazzled in colors I could only see in my dreams
I am the Star Engulfer.
I destroy the beauty of people's galaxies one by one
But darling, you are so much different
Maybe you never had your own galaxy to begin with
Maybe you stole somebody else's,
But love you won't steal mine.

I love this piece. I wrote it while we were dating. In a sense the galaxy is a heart, or clusters of them built up over the years. I'm not too sure yet, but this is my favorite piece. Enjoy :)!
