Dreams From Paper Airplanes

We fondly strolled through languid ways And rambled on without goodbyes; On cool and moonlit autumn days That held a glimpse of paradise . Bewitched by evening's lucent beams He told me I was ever fair-- That mirrors all our lifetime dreams While tucking ribbons in my hair. Time lit love's candle in my heart, Although I vaguely heard his sighs Enkindling flames that we won't part; Retracing oceans in my eyes : Yet journeys he had known, afar Unsure of betrothed vows, our plan: This oath circling on his lone star But wait I must, dear pilot man. .....................................
