on that first day,
you bought me a telescope,
and by the seventh day,
i understood what that meant.
i understood that there is
more to stargazing than
longingly staring at the sky
from my bedroom window
every night,
i understood that everyone
can see how bright
the star shines, how precious
it is when it lights up
what's around it,
but the star will suffer
a severe case of tunnel vision
and all it will see is
how the stars around it
seem brighter.
i understood that all this
heartbreak, all our struggles,
all our conflicts,
don't really matter when
the universe resides in us.
