As We Fall Amongst the Stars

At last she rose from

the darkness,

covered in sapphires and

stars.

The air filled with silver shadows

as she walked along the midnight moon.

"Tell me about the sun"

she says.

"Only after you've looked

into someone's eyes

and see your own soul

dancing will you know

what the sun is."

The moon replied

"Then I shall walk with you

until I find the sun"

She answered.

She takes the stars from

her dress and gently

blows them into the

endless sky.

The universe lights up in

such away that even

infinity can be found

dazzling with such brilliance

that letters drip like raindrops

in a storm

and words splash like

puddles on the ocean floor.

Unspeakable beauty

She smiles and steps along

the Amethyst path,

searching for the enchantment

of the sun.

The seasons change with each

of her steps,

intertwined with an unseen hourglass.

Seconds, minutes, days

Winter, Spring, Summer

collapse together like

a broken puzzle.

She sees a silhouette

fall from the stars,

wrapped in a cerulean light

Spellbinding

The silhouette moves towards her

and she is paralyzed.

Frozen throughout centuries

Breathless

Her heart beating wildly

like a thousand butterflies

trying to escape a mirror.

The silhouette, now a figure,

touches her face and

she immediately feels a warmth

that awakens every inch her body.

She is alive in such away

that lightening escapes

from her fingertips

and clouds spiral around her,

holding hands in a

celestial celebration.

She is so intoxicated with

this feeling,

this fantastically blissful feeling

so very unfamiliar to her,

yet something she secretly

had always known to be there.

She stumbles around Mars

and Jupiter before falling

into a twilight sleep

so intensely deep

that nothing wakes her

but the sound of angels

singing a song so sweet that

flowers melt away like a

rainbow in a hurricane.

Hallelujah

The figure lifts her up

and pulls her close.

"Look into my eyes."

says the figure.

"I'm afraid, "says the girl.

"But why? Why are you afraid?"

"I'm afraid my heart will break

like penrose stairs."

she replied.

"The penrose stairs are

infinite, as is the sun.

Look into my eyes."

says the figure.

Terrified, she looks up into the

figures eyes and gasps

at what she sees.

She is dancing,

free, wild, uninhibited

ecstasy consumes her body

like a wildfire.

"You should not fear your

destiny my beauty, or

something you desire so greatly.

Fate has brought us together,

and love will bind our souls."

says the figure.

They embrace,

melting into each other

like sand into a diamond.

The crescent moon

smiles and fades away

into the darkness.

The sun illuminates the

heavens so bright,

so beautiful,

so full of complete joy,

that the galaxies gleam

with happiness and

the planets spin in delight.

"I want to listen to your heartbeat."

says the girl.

"Then lay your head on my

chest and listen,

for we are together,

here, now and forever.

I absolutely love this! The imagery is beautiful. I frequently come back to re-read it.
