Listen to the stars begin to whisper in the night
revealing timeless tales in their ever-twinkling lights
Hidden secrets safely kept, by mere creatures made of dust
eclipsing every power the universe has made for us
We spend our moments wrapped away in fragile shells
beating hearts, like magic, with full, functional cells
Loves a gift we give away, not something to be demanded
a freeing, fragile force that our emotions have a hand in
It seems insanely impossible to capture such a thing
a promise and a vow all held together with a ring
For some, like me, it runs hot and quickly fades away
refusing to be held down, moving swiftly on its way
Still, there are solitary moments when the stars call out to me
pulling me out of my seclusion for a chance to touch the sea
And I fondly follow the loving pull of its ever-gentle waves
answering my longing and the chance of being craved
