Intergalactic Love Affair

ablaze as it soars through the sky,
oh for just one moment might i try,
to grab her attention,
try my hardest to form a connection.

she lit up the world, our eyes meet,
maybe if the cosmos would wait a beat,
perhaps she'd be the one who knew,
parts of me I shared with very few.

icy and alone, a virgin of embrace,
out of the blue she grants me her grace,
only to be stripped away from it all,
oh this god has some gall.

eternal asymptote,
love for no more than a half note,
a comet and her sun,
another seventy six year long run
