Against a background
As deep as imagination
Shooting stars
Constellations move
Indicative of the rising
And falling cycles in
Our lives
I reach for you
Next to me,
Across the way,
Over the miles
Which speak of
Distance
And
Intimacy
My hands,
Like nebula,
Lost amongst the
Deepest space
Reach out
To find you
First, in perimeter
We meet
Next, in proximity
We turn
Then, in close contact
We merge
All beneath the
Darkest cover of night
I paint you in dark stars
The brush, my hand
The canvas, your soul
As I move your hair
Off to one side
The planets turn
To watch time passing
The comets flame
As one heart beating
The planetary rings
Entwine us
Enshrine us
Beneath this far-reaching sky
You rise against
A backdrop
Of sparkling stars
They edge your
Outline,
Mesmerisingly so
I see you there
On the horizon
I lift myself up
Like a shroud in
The aether
And float through the
Night sky to
Where you are awaiting
I meet you out there
In the infinite
Embrace
I paint you in dark stars
My easel is a song
Singing
"Tonight
"Tonight
"I will be holding
"You soon"
The hills are in shadow
The sky dark as coal
As the two move together
Amongst the myriad stars
The distant lights flare
Overhead
As they glisten
I paint you in dark stars
I paint you with me
