Because you are the starlight that sings to me;
A layer of silence upon silence
That only I can ever hear.
Your voice is carried by the night air,
Delicious in its warmth, the moisture near tangible,
Clinging to my skin; an invisible lover.
The night throbs,
The dawn sighs,
Morning opens its eyes,
And the dream is lifted like
A virgin lover’s veil.
