Look at the stars
the way they shimmer
kisses covering the face of the universe
gentle and steady
look at the way they burn
hotter than we can comprehend
think of the worlds they could devour
the lives they could snuff out
Touch the ocean
feel the waves lick your fingers
just as they meet you
like they love you already
imagine the depth of them
the fathomlessness
ready to swallow anything they're given
think of all the things lost below
Feel your heart
touch it as it beats
pumps seconds away
loves through the hours
remember the way it can crack
right down the middle
like a bomb
bursting right through your ribs
See all the danger
it's everywhere
in everything
but tell me
does it tarnish the beauty
or just add a few more shadows
right where they belong
right where they'll stay.
