Starshine and Silhouettes

Starshine and silhouettes



                                             Happiness was mine
                                 as our shadows danced under the moon
                                     Silhouettes of starshine's glimmer
                                        as you glide across the room

                                       Shadows escaping each other 
                                    as our silhouettes they evanesced
                                 Mesmerized by your celestial spectacle,
                                           I had to catch my breath

                                        Intrinsic energy and emotions 
                                 accelerating fusion all through the night
                            My shadow danced in time with your silhouette 
                                       and I knew that you were mine.
