A thousand shimmering stars embellished the moonlit sky
As white interwoven sequins on a black silk cloth.
A golden glitter adorned the sky with brilliance.
A dust of silver encircling the Moon:
A ball emanating white light.
Its soft sheen spread all across the sky,
Midnight blue tinted with purple.
Her gaze fell upon the crystal pendant dangling from her necklace.
It sparkled under the cluster of scintillating stars,
Under the innumerable orbs of light.
A gentle breeze touched her skin with tender.
A scarf demurely wrapped around her shoulders.
Her eyes shone like blue Sapphires.
Glistened like dew.
She smiled.
She saw things in a different light.
She took out her broken pieces with meticulous care,
As though the mere touch would shatter them all over again.
She admired them as if they were the rarest pieces of sea glass,
Precious coloured gemstones.
At that night under a million fascinating lights,
Her eyes blazed with fire burning bright.
She asked for,
The guidance to wash away the blackness,
A light to pour into her heart,
A spark of fire to set her alight,
A solace for the soul.
She embarked on a new journey
With immense faith in her heart.
She was a Nightingale singing her own song.
Cooing like a Dove,
She delved into the night to unveil the secrets of love.
-E.B.K.
