Center of the Universe

Center of the Universe

By

Nathan Caleb Camerer

You’re the center of the universe

You’re the sun

The brightest star

A source of heat

And a source of light

Your gravitational pull

Keeps the planets

And other stars in motion

Revolving around you

Always at risk

Of a solar flare

That could bring an end

To life as we know it

I feel like Pluto

Not a planet

Not a star

A lump of rock

Floating thru space

In orbit around you

Like the rest of the universe

Light years away

And ill equipped

With the wrong type of telescope

To view you

Without burning my eyes

And you burn too hot

For me to get close

Without melting

You are

The center of the universe
