Star-crossed
i.
They say we existed as stars before this,
pure atoms drifting within some abysmal mist
but as long as the cosmos and comets exist,
I will burn brighter for you.
ii.
Constellations were charted for us to connect
The history of us they had tried to perfect
But the bonds that we shared they could never dissect,
and I will glow brighter for you.
iii.
Telescopes were invented to watch us with envy
Shakespeare up in arms, he'll try and defend me
Poetry was transcribed to adore and commend thee
yet I will blaze brighter for you.
iv.
Science has shown that we grow so much farther
away from each other, but keep up your ardor
for though our embraces try to make us like martyrs,
I will spark brighter for you.
