Constellations

On my skin, God traced constellations,
ethereal forms that whisper stories
in their infinite and celestial dance.

Those constellations, tireless,
remain etched into my being,
like a sigh in the memory of the wind.
My skin, folding with the years
like an old parchment,
preserves its essence intact,
a perpetual echo that,
with each cycle of time,
transforms into a magical legacy,
an immortal whisper of the divine.
