You're in another galaxy
One completely of your own

I break my bones to build a ladder
I need to see you
I need to breathe you

I've missed you all my life
But I've only seen you in my mind
They are not dreams, but nightmares in which you always die
And I'm left scraping your flesh off the ten foot cliff

You didn't realize your galaxy was a gift
You believed it was a punishment
For your own selfish sins

Your galaxy was your skin and your mind and your breath
And the stars aligned the day you were born
Just like the moon was full

Magic happened to make your galaxy. Be alive to see it.
