The Only Universe

Beauty beyond the universe

The sun appears with new light,
I see you walking on the green path.
Thousands tread the same ground,
yet why do I only feel you?

The scene shifts —
the old sun sinks,
leaning on its golden stick.
You turn homeward,
while a few clouds gather,
wrapping the fading light in quiet cloth.

Millions of stars shimmer,
countless wonders call —
so why have you
become my entire universe?

Am I too small,
or do you hold
the sum of all beauty?
I do not know.
I only see you.
