That Sparkling Light

Shining,
Bright and loud,
Mimicking my heart when I witness them,
Following the rhythm,
Every beat,
Some like star-crossed lovers,
Some never meeting at all,
Like lonely souls,
That shine on their own,
Howling with all their might for the whole world to hear,
Some as bright as those eyes,
Of everyone who has ever touched my heart,
My soul,
My life.
Shining,
Like only they can,
Free as everything soaring the skies above everything earthbound,
Free as I once wish to be,
Free as my captive soul has always yearned for.
Shining,
Bright and loud,
For me,
For you,
For us,
Shining like only a form of tangible love could,
So ephemeral,
So intense.
Shining,
Bright and loud,
The song of the dark nights to celebrate,
The dance of all those before us that are long lost.
