People are made of the earth;
their souls collections of stardust and dreams.
But dreams are full of tears.
This is why when people cry the droplets hold a galaxy.
Hopes and dreams are not as intricate as galaxies or nebulas,
but they are quite more beautiful.

It is said eyes are the windows to the soul,
but I believe they are the soul.
If eyes were just the frame then why would they contain such intricate patterns?
Why would the frame be the nebula instead of something less perfect?

Nebulas catch the eye in the night sky
just as a flame does in the darkness
Nebulas may not be colourful like the limitless hues of the eyes,
but why love something just for the colour?
The intricacies of the unknown are what bring us back with wonder,
wanting and needing more

In the end, I was wrong
For if souls are filled with galaxies
And these hold a person's dreams
Then nebulas and galaxies are more beautiful to see
But are much less complicated than the interworkings of a soul,
at least to me
