And then,
All too soon
The sun had set.
I looked up
At the sky
And found
An inky void;
The night sky
Was devoid
Of the stars, of the moon, of life.

I turned to you
And found that
You were
Looking at me like I
Was the most
Exquisite creature
You'd ever seen.

In that moment,
I realised
That the sky
Was not an inky void;
We were the stars,
And from us came the moonlight.
