The Universe of Me

My body is a universe
My freckles are the stars
The planet Venus is my lips
My teeth, they come from Mars

Mercury is in my brow
The furrow that you see
My thighs are Jupiter, you know
In the galaxy of me

Supernovas crackle
In the sparkle of my eye
Explored by the odd astronaut
Who may dare to try

My emotions are the Milky Way
My thoughts, the rings of Saturn
The chaos and the meteors
Make quite the pleasant pattern

Watch the shooting stars
Like the lightning of my mind
Make a wish! Quick!
Before I leave the world behind

Search for constellations
On the surface of my heart
Make meaning of the mysteries 
Make shapes of broken parts

I trust you with the rings of Saturn of my mind
I know that when you look upon my world, you will be kind
Be safe on your voyage into my galaxies
I promise you'll be well-loved in the universe of me
