she laughs and the earth rotates
just a little bit further
being with animals is so healing and joyous…they deserve all the love in the world
“There’s a Japanese phrase that I like: koi no yokan. It doesn’t mean love at first sight. It’s closer to love at second sight. It’s the feeling when you meet someone that you’re going to fall in love with them. Maybe you don’t love them right away, but it’s inevitable that you will.”
— Nicola Yoon, The Sun is Also a Star (via youngadultquoted)
i. i find myself staring at you
ii. but i don’t say anything when you look back
iii. i bring you up in conversation
iv. people can tell by how i talk about you
v. i’m unsure what to do
i. i see explosions right in front of me
the way you’re existing next to my galaxy
i can’t help but observe the bluest of skies
the bluest of hearts and the bluest of eyes
ii. i’m in cosmos, there’s no ground to be found
but cosmos is cosmos, i can’t make a sound
suddenly you look at me, oh like never before
but i’m in space darling, so far away from home
iii. so many stars around me and many moons
each with its own melody, with is own tune
and in this chaos of voices there is mine too
i sing a song like a hymn, written about you
iv. it’s not the madness i feel but, damn my soul
it’s the madness i became, filling up every hole
every piece of me, every thought, my heart
is not mine anymore, they say it’s not smart
v. the centre of my universe, the brightest sun
you’re spacedust and poems and i am undone
maybe with time and wishes i’ll finally expand
cosmos is endless but we’ll meet at the end
