Love Poem: Starry Starry Night

Starry Starry Night

Away from the blackest fears tonight
In this moment we live for
Relaxed upon Fall's bitter evening

We take in the city's rush below
Innocence surrounds these heights
Alone we are but the starry glow

Velvet plush high above us now
Not alone we are in a clear blue night
Stars align to the scales watch us below
They keep intact, forever I wonder how

Obscurity above, I gaze to my side
He looks on, with no conscious of what I know
With this moment, I love him so
Concealed it must, my look is now above

I breathe in this rapture to keep inside
But free it to the silent stars to trust
I hold it to fate our signs will align
Hopeless it is for one such poetic reverie
Under one Summer's starry starry night.
