Star-Crossed Lovers

The heavenly firmament where the ocean meets
remains steadfast and tolerant
never changing and yet can count the stars. 

Alone in splendor, repose a brief sojourn,
under a blue-green pinion balmy air
has slightly fluttered moving ethereal tides.

Star-crossed lovers move step by step in movements
of the celestial bodies, but constantly
besmirch by outside forces.

In the darkest and most vulnerable,
lissome steps tread the path where silent throes
are heard in waves jealous of blithesome wind.

Star-crossed lovers move step by step in movements
of the celestial bodies, threaded fingers,
no need of exchange of words.
