I recently learned that what makes us

us use to belong to a worn out star that collapsed within itself

Are atoms are made of stars he said

each different; older, and brighter

this is beautiful yet hard to accept

maybe its because I find Christianity falling out of my lips

or the possibility of us not being made from the same star is harder to swallow

4.5 billion year old stars died and formed life on earth that feed our ancestors

you are 2 years older not ready to live a life your afraid of

and I am younger whose prepared every step me-tic-u-lou-sly

but you,

supernova

have interrupted my plans

with passion i can not control

you have but lights in my eyes that are brighter than the sun

because hearing you laugh erupts an explosion of stars in my stomach

we are stardust my teacher said

yet when i asked what made up this he gave big answers

that i can only translate to little ones

Stardust is the emotions we feel daily

Carbon was the basis of our fuel

because each touch gave inspiration for something else

oxygen was what i often needed when you stopped to look at me

and nitrogen was the cure to love sickness

Stardust

was a perfect explanation to why i feel like we've meet before

Because it was the heart of a star that loved you eons ago

even when you were planets away

we are connected by the simple fact that we are made from a died ball of gas Mr.c said inhumanly

but i guess we are not human

instead aliens trying to find acceptance in an alienated world

But I found you

And now we can return to

Our purple galaxy bed sheets

our night light of suns

pillows formed from the milk way and

Back to the comfort that we are no longer alone

Outer space is the only place were i can describe your beauty

every color is the emotion you cause in yourself and in me

the soundless background is emptyness inside me because everything in me

is paying close attention to you

the flying clutter zooming around is all my thoughts about us

And even if others say

"their only dead stars"

no longer living

was never alive

I will know

And I will believe

You make everything that seems dead alive

And that's faith

it goes so well with science

because in each there is love

and i will always believe that what i feel in the present and the future

was made and planned eons ago.
