Dancing Stars

The universe is continuously expanding
     (as is my love)
and is infinitely wide - 
destined to be bigger and bigger

and the moon is so far away from the earth
     (yet when I hold out my hand
I can almost touch it)

and the stars dance on a stage
that is getting bigger and bigger

and in the tiny, tiny
probably that you could live
you stood in front of me
with sparkling eyes
and glimmering skin

and you held out your palm
as if you were holding the universe
     (holding my love)

and you promised me
the faraway moon and 
innumerable stars - 

never knowing the gigantic
space that separates them
from our existence

and every time I look up
I see your broken promises 

and you break my heart all over again.
