Centre Of My Universe Poem by Mark Heathcote

through our unborn child,
I'll make you the centre of my universe
I'll take root in you
like our unborn child, I'll put all my faith in you.
I'll gravitate in circumference
follow and circle you, and only, you.

Through our unborn child,
I'll make you the centre of my universe
through my feathery soul mounting like snow
to warm the meltwaters of your soul
I will tell you I might one day die
but I'm never going to let you go.

Falling trembling-earth, gypsum sky
your loves an avalanche
a diamond mine, a diamond that can't-be-eroded
your love is tender, its classy,
its like-24carat-gold in the dirt coming-my-way
coming-my-way - coming-my-way today.

Through our unborn child,
I'll make you the centre of my universe
and like a seed, I'll take root in you
with you, no canopy is dark
it's like the sky—it's full of flickering light
diamond stars in the night - tonight.
