"Crescent Moon"

(Crystal Clear Longing)

The silver moon strikes shards

Against the delicate balance of we

Like a cherubic angel aloft

Holding a single candle brightly

Cascading your skin in flourescent perfection

The stars shine in perfect cadence

As the wondrous silent creatures

Gaze in subtle curiosity at our anxious skin

Your mouth tastes of sweet strawberries

And your skin the softest silk

My heart trembles each time you are near

As we dance beneath the pale moonlight

Our hearts dance in synchronistic delight

Round the moon and past the  dusty earth

A silent sonnet that plays for two

We embrace the countless infinities

That strike as we glance at one another

Like an exotic  flowering unfolding

Neatly upon it's own crimson petals

Your sweet nectar imbrues itself

Upon my melancholy disposition  

Let the dangerous dark impressions

Of forogtten heartbreaks and dissapointments

Fall  to the ground as a jaded comet

With one kiss of your sweet lips

I fall upwards into the mystical sky

Joining other constellations

In the worshipful fascination

Of which you inspire
