a cold chill

                     filled the room

            as the sun

                      once again left us to dream

    I stroked

              the nippiness

        of your body against mine,

                                slowly heating up my throttle

                    your heart synchronized

                                to the throbbing booster

   inside the ribs of my chest

                    we sat and watched the moon

                         leisurely parade

across the night sky,

           through stained-glass windows of our minds

    setting the mood of our journey,

                  softly landing on the surface of our souls

I must say, the fireplace

           added to the ambiance

              of shadows dancing upon the wall

           and the moonbeams sure helped

          to cast a glow upon our blending form

                              on a mission

                    we almost took forever to complete,

        with all the fuel

 we'd ever need

         and all the space we'd ever require
