Starlight

I search for you

Throughout the galaxy

And I've changed my name

For a thousand times

Just to look for the one I love

But among the stars you laid

Painted the night canvas

With my face

But how can

I reach to you my love

When you're so high above

Laying down here on the ground

Hear me sing a love song

A rhapsody of longing

To have you near

Lullabies to feel your soul here

Dying.....

I'll pray to the moon

That I'll be waiting here

For your return

Till then.....

Let me hold your heart

For now

Trail of stardust from your lips lust

Of traveled skies to find what I cannot possess

As a constant...

Only wishing for its remnants to bless me once more

Against the pitch black you move

Shining pure of all that I gaze

Such a wonder your love draws on this blank sheet

My dreams are made on soft skin and kisses placed

Long conversations in the dark

And love made this spark...

I seek you over the moon

As your eyes stare as prisms

You light our way to forever

As galaxies awaited you bloom

And I'm so starstruck

Holding wishes then in soul

As you move like shooting stars do

Across my broken memories

Lighting my dark ocean waves

You reflect from above

Starlight love

The glory to be able to see

But a blessing in your arms to be... my love
