Love Poem: Supernova

Supernova

A light from another system
Sits effortlessly in the world 
The light which emits much joy
That which burns like a torch 
        In those savvy

The light lifts luminously 
Those with even a passing glance
And even more so 
If one can have the chance

Even one night 
In the city of lights
Beside the bright light
Affects those touched, forever

I know the light
I spent time with the light
It shone in me 
Relit my sorry wick
Which was snuffed in a manner most cold

What can I say about a light
That is, was, and will forever
be burning in me 
As long as I can shine
She will shine as a heavenly orb
In my heart of hearts

Even though I must part 
I will not wear a sullen heart
For I spent one and many eternal nights
With the light that shines so bright
