The Nerdiest Love Poem Ever

My Heart
has been broken
into so many pieces
                    so many times
by you
We will never run out of shards to gather
Even after the glaciers' melt disappears
the sand of the beach we spilled it in

And when all the stars of all the galaxies
have burnt out, gone nova
                       and collapsed all matter in the universe
to a singularity one micro-meter in diameter
a shining will exist
from a diffuse and scattered love
              in reflection
of those innumerable and enduringly vajra-edged
shards.

I wonder if then it can still be called mine
or if these new stars will gather in constellations
and if any remain to name them
will they be named after heroes and kings as stars are now
              or will a memory of their origin remain
                         to be named for their true purpose
