Astronomy

A light came falling from the stars
And before it would stand
It introduced itself to me
And took me hand in hand

We danced upon the shining grass
Of fields lit by the moon
And with one kiss she let me go
Saying the sun would rise soon

I’d wait till night for her to come
And every night she did
We’d live like life was eternal
Of it we’d never be rid

My lover from the skyward stars
Living life with no holds barred
And every day I’d wait for her
For night to fall, miracles occurred

I could forget my darkened past
Our soliloquy eternal last
She helped to clear my darkened sight
Which only showed with the sunlight

Eternal
Eternal
This dream would spring eternal

Eternal
Eternal
These dreams would spring eternal
