How are these weird entities created? They just seem to materialize out of mist, yet they have more substance than a white dwarf. You haven't seen them for eons. Then they appear out of the black of space. Time disappears and you are sharing a sun again. Our surfaces may have changed but we know that our insides are still the same. The sun laughs as we wobble together just as before. The days are endless together as we spend two rotations trying to decide how to spend the time and never come to a decision. You may not notice them when they are right beside you, but they leave an enormous black hole when they are gone. Their gravity gives you energy to rotate and keep exploring the universe. They grow into you and become a part of you. Sometimes our orbits take us in different directions and we eventually stop feeling each others gravity. Their absence will always be missed. With others we happily seem to revolve around the same weird space for unknown reasons. They introduce us to new planets that may also become intertwined with our revolutions. Sometimes even new moons are created that we can all share the joy of watching and caring for.

Thank you for letting me be a part of your universe.
