Catching Stars

Move on past those shadows!
bend across our crescent moon!
it's in our light that we crave this love,
buried in moonlight's heaven.
strike a match,
and all shall see us burning
beside the stars, flowing blooms
of glowing silhouettes, booming voices,
and two longing hearts,
beating in dreamlike rhythm.

History's scars, no longer
present upon the disgraced,
and fire's eyes burning into midnight.

We are blended into one,
taking flight on airs we've yet
to define
catching all stars, formally destined
to fall and drown away.

Fold yourself into this love,
for these dreams we hold
are newly opened inside this moment,
with lighted souls soothed by
infinite skies, born to us upon
first light in passion's piercing kiss.

And with such embrace, another
star is born, our fiery eyes
burning into midnight,
as these historic scars fade into our former world...

Falling stars, caught by hands
that dare to define the airs
on which their love was born,
our blended hearts
soaring above this crescent moon.
