Binding Starlight

Beautiful wanderer with eyes upturned.

Toward the dark skies and the stars in heaven

Lies your gaze while in your heart one dream burns.

A wish to see my eyes sparkle. Even

I, your angel, so very far from you,

Look upon the brilliance of the stars

and yearn to live in your arms the night through.

God, that the space between us were not far

So we could reside in each other's eyes,

Lay on the dewy grass of the chill Spring nights,

And experience all of Love's delights.

Yet as long as the stars in heaven shine

My heart is yours, and yours, forever mine.
