Stardust Lament Poem by Za7ra Sulaiman

Our eyes met, a cosmic collision,
Sparks igniting, hearts in sync.
In that moment, time stood still,
Two souls entwined, fated to link.

I saw galaxies in your gaze,
Nebulae swirling in your smile.
Drawn to your celestial grace,
I was lost, adrift for a while.

But alas, our stars were misaligned,
Destined to burn out, fade away.
Though our love burned fierce and bright,
It was doomed from its first day.

Now I gaze up at the night sky,
Watching shooting stars race by.
I long for the love we could've had -
A supernova in the sky.

If only our stars had aligned,
Our love could have shone endlessly.
Alas, it was not meant to be -
Just stardust, drifting endlessly.
