Charmaine Chircop Poet Free verse

How You Make the Stars Hush

I might forget you for a little while

but when the last desert hues of sunset roses

wrap the bareness of these arms

Out of nowhere and without reason I think of you

Darkness falls and so my tears

but  then the wind wafts its zephyr breeze

and exhales away my fears

My fears,the deepest of fears I ever fear

A pearlescent moon rises above an unshaped horizon

casting its opalescent glow upon my face

making me feel your warm embrace

Silver dust descends so softly 

like your lips over my skin

It confirms you've returned back 

from wherever you have been

Your return brings back the melody

 as you love me unexpectedly

Oh my love come close ,Come lean  on me

How you make the stars hush breathlessly

Once again you play your music 

on the muffled strings of my heart

Once again the fluting sound of distant birds

fulfill  two souls that can never truly part

Oh my love come close ,Come lean on me

How you make the stars hush breathlessly

Still,so still they keep our secrets

and would not reveal life's destiny 




Tnks for the inspiration,not for the contest

(For those who wish to participate its the  contest
-'How you make the stars hush')
