Writing Love Poems to the NASA Artist’s Concept

Maggie Devers

How small we are,

How infinitesimally small,

And yet I am here

Writing this down so you may read it

10 years from now, or a hundred,

Or never.

Is never the same as zero?

What if every breath is a big bang

The end of one universe

And the beginning of another?

Galaxies live in your voice

Echoing through the walls, off the walls

In the space between your ribs

I hear you

I see you

Once

Twice

Forever

And it’s never enough.
