Across the universe

My body is a cavern
A hollow vacuum, hungry
For elusive contentment

I am ravenous
I search
Cry out for you

I haunt you
And illuminate you
With light

Like perfect white stars
Pulsing around my head
Light you sent years ago

Finally reaching
The deepest part of me
No sooner than you came to me

You are gone
And I may never believe it's true
Why won't you let me say goodbye?

Instead you let me empty out
Like a breath into the atmosphere
I'll travel a million miles

To reach your supernova
I'll find your black hole heart
Only to be swallowed

Left again with nothing
But the insatiable hunger
For
more...
