As luck would have it,
there she was
peeking just around the corner
from behind the moon
breathing softly
but breathing love

As luck would have it,
for she smiled at me
and every time she smiled
God spoke through her eyes
conveying everything
through her eyes

As luck would have it,
her visage of gold beamed
with chalcedony colors
that pierced through my heart
and I couldn't help it
exuberantly smile with sheer joy
every now and again

As a strange dark fate had it,
it dawned on me
she was discreetly decamping
fading yonder onyx skies
leaving me a desolate
down the dumps
and a lonesome wanderer
only wishing to ever
catch her glimpse

There's a full moon tonight.
I hope you look up and gaze at it.

That way, I can say we've done something
together.

I find such words
So empty and meaningless
They possess no special gift
Nor do they craft
A love as a perilous journey
Or dream aloud in bliss

So freely we fly
Unpredictable skies
Crash indeed we may
On poetic wings
We express our falls
And fly again
  Just the same...
