The celestial navigation of starlight

When stars shone on us

We felt as though we were

The only ones

Blessed so deeply

By the heavens above

As we surrendered ourselves

To love

Whispering all of our most vulnerable hopes

Beneath the light of the moon

And as we dreamed our dream

Of finally finding home

Within the deep reflection

Of each others eyes

Mirroring starlight

Oh how we felt then

The healing benevolence

Of those above who guard our precious hearts

From too much harm

As with the tenderness of aching

We finally knew

The secret loss we shared

That bound our two hearts together

Like a net

Which finally would

Draw our souls together

As we each surrendered ourselves

To the celestial navigation

Of starlight
