Enraptured,
he watches her breathe,
softly stroking sweet inspiration on warm velvet.
Dormant embers stir flickering pinpoints of light,
as whispered sonnets coax a smile
from her beloved lips.
Hearkened by impassioned heart,
Melted gold meets aroused azure
in soul-deep response;
Silent gazes of fervent ardor
transcribe urgent epistles of profound emotion,
promised in a second’s infinity.
Fingertips meet in transcended space
of measured heartbeats and bated breaths;
Vows of undying devotion encompassed
in a simple touch;
Bittersweetly exchanged traces
of eternal love unspoken.
Luna soars as Sol kneels
troth pledged forever to his lady moon.
She bids him goodnight with a kiss,
crooning poignant lullabies of love’s sweetest dream
as she waits in faithful vigil
for her sun to rise once more.
