Silhouette Dancing

In a billion stars  

Your eyes reached out

Into the winds of the moon’s tide

You stood over your universe

In all its magnificent splendor

With the fireworks of a meteor shower

In silken wings of a night butterfly

Swirling so wildly erotic

In the innocence of purity

Dancing in harmony with nature

Yet creating your own music

In the softness of a pool of rainbows

The fabric of living affixed to you

Pieces magnetically creating your aura

In a fashion that intoxicates passion

As the bare feet of an angel cast her spell

Standing afar, I watched the light show

Glued to the fragrance of desires

Dance my fairy princess

Into the night of my heart

For you have captured me

In your total perfection

On the clouds of fantasies

My feeling have melted into the night

As the winds started to decline

Wrapping you up into a cocoon

Falling into the awaiting swells

A lonely tear appeared

To an even lonelier heart

As the golden rays

Blinded my mind

Looking away in pain

A transparent material

Floated before me

I awake the night skies

Looking for a dream

Of a silhouette dancing

As a butterfly

On moon beams
