Cosmic love

One of my few non-rhyming poems

Cosmic Love

By Shawn P. Cassidy

Before the world had a name,

a spark drifted through the void,

searching for its reflection.

I was that spark"

wandering through constellations of memory,

through lifetimes folded in light.

I dreamed of a soul

whose gravity would draw me home.

Friendships fell like meteors,

love flared and vanished like dying suns.

Then you appeared"

not as a promise,

but as a star I had always known.

Your light reached me

before I understood what light was.

You opened my eyes to the unseen,

my mind to the infinite,

my heart to the quiet pulse of creation.

The boy dissolved;

a man stood in his place,

formed from the dust of your devotion.

Now even the cosmos cannot unmake what we are.

Our love burns beyond the reach of time.

When the heavens fold and silence returns,

I will still speak your name"

the word that means home

in every language of the stars.

That is very beautiful.
A story of finding true love.
The immersion of the souls when they unite.
Awesome..
