Echoes from a Velvet Orbit

I am suspended in this luminous pocket of time, where the hum of the city becomes a distant pulsar beating against my eardrums. My vanity is a docking station, a sanctuary of glass and cream where I craft my identity for the void outside. Each stroke of color on my lips feels like painting a nebula across an empty sky, a ritual to prepare for the inevitable descent into your gravity.
The mirror reflects not just skin, but a map of longings—the way I reach for your name in the silence between heartbeats. There is a weightlessness to our love that defies the laws of physics; it is a drift through the urban sprawl, where skyscrapers are mere satellites and we are two souls sharing a single, shimmering trajectory. We exist in the space between breaths, a place where time loses its linear grip.
I touch my hair, feeling its texture like silk spun from lunar dust. Tonight, I will step into your atmosphere, trading the solitude of orbit for the warmth of your embrace. There is no fear in falling when you are the ground I seek to find. In this room of soft light, I am preparing for our collision—a gentle impact that promises to keep us both warm against the cold expanse of the universe.
