your eyes are the galaxy

inside the atmosphere of your night eyes

the stars are a pale white against a black background

the misty pale swirls of cosmic dust explodes around your iris

they burst with colors of yellow, pink, dark blue, & violet

eyes as dark as midnight

but create enough color and light to shine on to me

what a bright

beautiful

mesmerizing

colorful

ethereal

creature you are
