Stealing the stars




If I could 
then I would 
steal a star right
out of the sky 
to give to you. 
 
Unfortunately 
there’s nowhere
I can safely store
a two million mile
diameter sphere 
of burning gas
with a surface 
temperature
of five thousand
degrees Kelvin 

Sometimes
being a romantic 
is totally 
impractic
