| Twinkles Black velvet sky Dotted with twinkles Like the ones in your eye Let the darkness be my cloak Silent midnight Laced with white puffs of breath In the absence of light I find my only peace How comforting is the dark Where no being can disturb me The place where I can find the spark That lights the fires of my heart Standing in the evergreen As wisps of cloud accent a sky of onyx And you smile a smile rarely seen One that reaches your ebony eyes The stars float over and around me Come, love, they'll encompass us This night, you could be mine only The stars might make it so. love poems anonymous |
