Star Crossed Lovers

Somewhere out there in the dark
That special one shines for me
Alone in skies bleak and stark
Rising far beyond the sea

Caring and kind pure of heart
Realizing we are one
Orbital circles we start
Searching behind the dark sun
Sadly longing to belong
Ever drawn to the same chart
Diligently growing strong

Longing to shine night and day
Over and above the fray
Very bright with glowing charms
Ever knowing we will stay
Resting in each other's arms
Somewhere near the milky way

The title of the contest grabbed my attention and I thought I would enter the acrostic that I wrote some time ago..it may not be eligible for a prize, but it fits the theme..

ah the heart and the wild spirit flaps longing out to the heavens, to capture a sigh of love. to rest in the chocolate stars; all swirling with a lullaby. a good poem.

Your acrostic is all that one should be. The text describing the lead words, flowing from one line to the next...and rhyming, AND a lovely theme. Well done...alby
