Ebony and Ivory

Lost amongst a trillion stars. In lustrous shades of Ebony and Ivory. We are like the moon craving for night fall, so our twin embers can ignite dark skies. Under the modesty of moonlight, desire illuminates in our eyes. We spark like supernovas in empyrean explosions, waltzing around the planets in a cosmic ballet. Penetrating pulses beat until glimpse of daylight, as zealous sun ascends like bonfires in our hearts - A celestial tapestry woven in timeless space.

A very mellifluous and heartfelt write i felt so deeply: i can never get tired of reading your poems.
