Galaxy and Ours

07.52

 





I often found myself gazing at Orion constellation, 
mumbled "There he is, the great hunter," 
you must be trustworthy, 
holds the story of million years. 
 
And I will follow my finger traced the big bear in the northern hemisphere, 
"Don't you miss your minor, Sir Ursa Major?" 
Or if I am lucky enough, 
I can see our little barred spiral Milky Way galaxy among other galaxies, 
hundred light-years across.  
 
Ah, what about the shooting star? 
I know... 
it is just a glimpse of stardust, 
miles away across my dirty lenses
And at times our eyes whirred comet-like.
 
Tracing its way to the wise constellations, 
like the entire atmosphere of Venus 
blows across the face of the planet 
in 4 days.  
 
I am afraid that 
I have loved the stars too fondly 
That I have always loved you 
unwillingly, 
unstoppably. 
 
To be fearful of the night 
Like the fear 
I always have whenever I see you 
 
Maybe John Green was right, 
no one could ever fathom 
their thoughts into constellations. 
 
Like I've lost my mind 
whenever I heard your name. 
 
For Jupiter has promised Saturn 
And I miss you too 
Like I always love you 
as the earth rotates around sun 
 
And you should know, 
that someday you will know 
That I will always do.
