Constellation of Us

I used to wander galaxies in search of warmth,  

drifting through black holes of loneliness and doubt,  

until your light collided with my orbit—  

and everything clattered into color.

Your laugh ignites a sunrise behind my ribs,  

melting years of winter in the space between my breaths.  

In the hush of your arms I find home,  

a sanctuary mapped in the soft curves of your heartbeat.

Every word you speak rewrites my constellations,  

turning empty nights into blazing stories.  

I trace your name in the marrow of my bones,  

and feel the pulse of forever in your fingertips.

With you, time unravels its knots—  

seconds extend into golden threads of promise.  

You’re my greatest adventure, my quiet rebellion,  

the reason my heart drums a new rhythm.

I can’t imagine mornings before your sun,  

or nights that don’t echo with your warmth.  

You are the gravity pulling me whole,  

the love that taught me how to truly be alive.
