He came from stars, a world unknown,
A boy with dreams as vast as stone.
Lost and curious, strange and free,
A wanderer in a galaxy.

She floated softly, quiet, unseen,
A spirit hidden, caught between,
The shadows where she lived alone,
A ghost bound to a place unknown.

They met beneath a pale, cold sky,
Two souls adrift, no reason why.
One touched the stars, one touched the past,
Both searching for a bond that lasts.

He saw her glow, faint but bright,
A flicker in the dead of night.
She felt his warmth, his gentle gaze,
A solace in her lonely haze.

"Stay with me," he softly spoke,
In words that shimmered, almost broke.
And she, a whisper, barely there,
Drew close to feel his cosmic stare.

They danced in silence, hand in hand,
A ghost, an alien, strange and grand.
Two souls who'd never fit quite right,
Yet found each other in the night.

In the void where they collide,
Bound by love they cannot hide.
An alien boy, a ghostly girl—
Together they create their world.
