Universe


Once, I was alone
before time began
before my breath exited my lips
before my heart began to beat

Then came the sun
it burned hot
gave me energy
and filled my soul with fire

The moon was next
looking down on me with lazy eye
stirring my heart
and lighting me with passion

The stars...
like tiny nightlights,
millions lit my way
guiding me towards you

After a long silence
there was light like music
the cosmos played our song
and we danced for an eternity

Once, I was alone
but now you hold my hand
you welcome me with open arms
into your heart that is now my universe
