It was my pleasure! Thank you for posting ✨

That’s honestly my favorite part of my own piece ☺️ I stare up at the night sky a lot and watch stars, and often wonder who else out there is looking up from their distant home, wondering about me. I suspect there are a countless number of us dying to meet our cousins in the cosmic expanse 🖤 thanks for reading! 🖤

I really like what you have here. The idea of hopeful search is actually heartwarming. I’m a fan of the repetition of “not” and then the suffix “ly” immediately after. Good work over all!

I love all of that and I rescind my suggestion to change the title. Having it re-framed as an old school punk song title makes me love it! ❤️

I’m an absolute geek for old school pop punk/hardcore song titles that are absurdly long 🤣 I love to think about the other intelligent life out there and the individuals in those faraway places who are just as interested in getting to know us as some of us are in getting to know them. Wondering what each other look like, what our languages are like, our cultures, our values….it’s beautifully surreal and exciting. In some lifetime I know I will get to meet my cosmic companions. Thank you for reading 🖤

I really, really enjoyed this poem; I personally really enjoy the thought that we're all connected throughout cosmos and this was a beautiful representation of that hope.

The only suggestion I might make would be to consider a shorter title? It almost feels a little disconnected from the poem itself, like it could be its own standalone phrase -- it's a good phrase either way, though, to be sure!

I really like this it get me to thinking about how everyone has a souls mate out there and the beauty of how we meet is always interesting and unexpected.

I see the shimmer in my starry skies

And I know that we are both alive

Light years apart

But I am yours

And you are mine.

Not theoretical

Not hypothetical 

Not just probable 

No, we are actually

Factually real.

Possibly lovers,

Undoubtedly friends,

All of us sisters and brothers 

Born of the cosmos mother

Again and again to whatever end.

You know that I’m here 

And I know that you’re there

There is nothing to fear

We’ll find a way to each other 

Some life, somewhere.

It doesn’t matter that I can’t see your eyes; I know they’re locked on mine
