Colliding Stars
There was a twinkling in your eyes, when we first met.
The light pulled me in, into a cosmos of your own.
It was new, but humble, terrifying but lovely, it was strange but familiar.
The star dusts in my bones, trembled at the sight of you.
Like I knew you. Like my star dusts knew yours.
I could tell you felt it too. I felt your star dusts shake in you.
Defying gravity, I wanted to float into your space
and discover the colours of your galaxies, the universe in your eyes.
With curiosity for your unknown, there was a black hole sucking me in,
into your singularity.
That's what was happening.
Stardust to stardust.
It was you and me.
We were two colliding stars.
