Clasp

The stars above are peeping

At this carnal carnival

The gyrations of our hips

 

These soulful glances we revere

The music of your heartbeat

Drawing me to you

To a sphere seen by only two

Like the charm of the countryside

Do you see the thirst in my eyes

 

They are the witnesses

The quiet spectators shining down

On a moment that locks

Our sinus rhythms into one

They are beaming with joy

They are hurtling away

The clouds are giving us the cues

They are cuddling

Or maybe its just my eyes

 

I see the glitter of your  covering

The shimmering glow of your skin

I think the stars are kissing

Two twinkled sparks merged into one

Right over our heads

The sky has ruled in our favor

We may now embrace the night

As much as ourselves
