A secret affair
of overwhelming heartbeats,
a swirling unexpected state of shock.
A contemplation of musical spark plugs,
sending showers of light into the night skies
creating artificial fireflies.
Twinkling lights of reflected eyes,
flashing in multiple luminous moonrises;
the sands of another planet running through alien fingers.
The invigorating rush of free-falling through time,
crushing all barriers of the physical world
to make way for our intangible universe.

I love this part. Amazing write. I like the title...it fits with this.
thanks for entering. -
i like =)
couple suggestions:
i would change line six to "and creating artificial fireflies" just to add another beat and help it flow back into the line before it.
you could use a semicolon in line eight, i think, since it's a bigger break.
conversely... you could also nix the comma in line eleven. i thought it was distracting, but it doesn't really matter.
over all, i liked the helter-skelter of this. good write =) -
