The Stars Aligned That Night

The way our hands explored, the thrill we felt Our eyes were glazed, our hearts so wildly throbbed The chill outside, our eager mouths did melt A prelude to romance, sheer passion robbed We fled the streets, abandoning all grace Shedding inhibitions, with immodest grins Then tumbled into bed, locked in a tight embrace Our hands a-tremble, worshiping pale skin... The stars aligned that night, their vast array They sparkled and they flickered, brilliant flames The moon shone bright, did silhouette our play The Heavens beamed, our tryst they did proclaim O cruel morn, too early have you come To shine your light on love, to strike it dumb
