Universe in Flames

Birthed from struggle;
I will remain shining until I explode

Supernovas gyrate around me
as comets who come too close

perish in my heated gaze
Infinitesimal meterorites
orbit around my magma exterior

catching on each other and breaking
apart the words that spill from my bleeding core

radiant and reviled in the day and
waiting with rabid anticipation in the night

until the next opportunity arises
to spread my wings upon the page
