Ode To The Celestial Being

Somewhere in the cosmos
you'll find her
lighting up the skies 
she's not a consolation prize
more like a constellation in disguise
but she doesn't belong to Orion
and she doesn't belong to me 
the universe has her
she is its cosmic key 
able to move through space 
and any place in time
she could place herself in your mind
or any other place you find
but that would be just fine with me
because I'm light years behind
if God let me plan it

I would leave this planet
and let the universe take me
the way it took her
then we would at least be parallel 
living an interplanetary fairy tale 
I love how that sounds 
getting lost in her presence
but never lost in her essence
