When The Stars Lean In
Sylvia Farrow


The night
Drapes softly
In silver and blue
A whisper
Of forever
Between me and you
Your eyes
Like lanterns
They find my soul
Where the heart wanders
It longs to be whole
A step into shadows
A step into light
Is this the moment?
It feels so right
When the stars lean in
And time stands still
Every breath feels like a wish to fulfil
The air tastes sweeter
The world spins slow
When love begins
We let it grow
The breeze carries secrets
Soft and true
It dances between us
It knows what's new
Your hand
So steady
Yet trembling too
Is this the start of forever
For me and you?
A bridge to the future
A glance at the past
The leap feels endless
Yet it holds us fast
When the stars lean in
And time stands still
Every breath feels like a wish to fulfill
The air tastes sweeter
The world spins slow
When love begins
We let it grow
