She pockets the stars
And chases the moon
She keeps aiming high
Even though she misses

She memorizes each piece of him
She clutches his back
And memorizes the notches
Of his flawless glass spine

She traces his rib cage
His rice paper thin skin
With her quill like fingers
And leaving her magic touch

She grips his hip bones
Memorizing the exact spots
That they seem to escape
When he moves her closer to him

He memorizes each piece of her
He catches sight of diamonds
In her ocean colored eyes
That seem to hold the universe in them

He runs his finger
Along her nectarine lips
And tastes the sweet nectar
That lies inside them

He loses himself in her
While clutching her hands
As they rise together
Above the endless sky

They captivate each other
And fit together like a puzzle
Two flawed pieces that were broken and forgotten
Have somehow managed to complete each other
I'm very proud of this one. :heart:

Captivating from the very beginning, I especially love the first stanza "She keeps aiming high
Even though she misses" is a fantastic bit of poetry. I'm glad you're proud of this piece, because you really deserve to be.
