if i were to paint

each freckle on your face

would it resemble

a late night sky?

would you let me

connect the dots to create

small constellations

before we died?

could your eyes

imitate venus and mars

if mine only

were neptune and earth?

if i build you

a spaceship to visit the sun

would you give me

all you're worth?

could you be the center

of my gravity

if I could get my lips

to smile?

when the stars would explode

and we'd end in flames

at least we'd go out

in style.
