Moon Bath

we bathed in moonlight
the silver intoxicant
before the earth’s shadow
moved the night
it’s darkness blocked out
clear sight of it

we closed our eyes
just to imagine eternity
the tide stopped a moment
a heart beat paused
heaven stood still
a star’s the only light

we basked in our embrace
which felt frozen in time
as the moon hid in the shadow

we kissed forever
only to awaken to the night
the labyrinth of light
the shadow passed

the earth rotated
tilting on it’s axis
the moon waning

we climaxed in ecstasy
in the moon’s eclipse
we bathed in the silver light
only the moon could shine
