Windows
there was a Big Bang
as you reached into my chest
and cradled my heart
I saw only the rich
dark black at first
then I got fixed on
those eyes
I pierce
your eyes
as we swim
in a deep sea of blankets
with galaxies of freckles
skin on skin
you lead me through
the Milky Way
your touch is radioactive
the way your nuclear fingers
trail my cheek
but you continue to mesmerize me with those
blue and green and brown beauties
the stars shimmer throughout
your mind
I reach for the Big Dipper to catch me
as I fall in
your eyes
want to leave this world for a while
want to intertwine our nerves
want to find my North Star
we visit Mercury and the sun
drips through my veins
you take me to Saturn and
spin me along the rings
as we veer towards
Earth you keep me dancing in
your eyes
want to fold inside your extremities
want to observe all this life
want to find my North Star
the universe was made to be seen by
your eyes
