Human Constellations

flesh colored emotions

stars tangled in skin

bones tattooed with scars

clichés, cleft, on the chin

*

a vast sea of people

constellations with smiles

spirits shooting through peepholes

glowing brightly for miles

*

galaxies fill the void

where once, hurt, left its mark

expectations destroyed

still preserving a spark

*

dancing on milky ways

exploration of fear

while the universe plays

diagnosing my tears

*

messages in rare bottles

bobble and wave, in the ocean

pushing the limits of the throttle

expanding the depths of devotion

*

wounded butterflies

adrift the break in the breeze

relearning to fly

arising beyond the trees

inspirationalsurreal poetry
