Under the Night Sky
For the heart is an organ of fire, stellar power, truth, beauty, and love.
Orion hangs in strength above,
yet even he cannot hold me as you do.
The Pleiades shimmer, bound together—
just as my heart is bound in your keeping.
And the Bear turns slowly in the north,
a faithful guide across dark waters,
the way your love has become my compass.
Even the Mazzaroth, circling the heavens,
cannot tell a story more radiant
than the one written between us.
And, like those heavens,
Impossible miles
And impenetrable obstacles
Stand between our two lives.
Real,
Indelible,
But,
Impossible.
Therein lies the
Heartbreak.
The course of true love never did run smooth. — William Shakespeare
