Stars of Clarity

The stars of clarity have risen in my heart.
To light the flames that burn through the night,
   and steal away the darkness.
That leaves a glow around your face,
   where my eyes will dwell forever
as they become liquid from love
and weave a willowy web of wings.
That fly us to the heart of tenderness,
   smothered in passionate dreams.
Where we'll find the sensual kiss is an invitation,
to travel the red and purple sunsets
   of our horizon
Where we'll share the candlelight of desire
   and pluck the stars of clarity,
from the heaven in our souls
Where, as lovers we'll tend the fires of eternity,
   until our last breath

This is so passionate and so beautiful, absolutely love the flow of imagery and how touching every line in this is especially the ending, where you’ve mentioned plucking of stars to be in love forever is just beyond ethereal, and so creatively crafted in such captivating cadence. I found this poem magical, i should have guessed it is written by you because i always enjoy your imagery and emotive poems. Definitely worthy of a first place. Congratulations and thank you for sharing
