SECRETS THAT ONLY THOSE IN LOVE CAN UNLOCK

Come, let us sit within the night sky.
in a high up perch
and change the course of the wind.
We can open each of the stars up,
as presents, and ask "Look, what's inside?"
At each one.
Gazing at what magical wonder
awaits us in each.
Secrets that only those in love
can unlock.
Travels to faraway places.
with exotic animals
And to heavens that can be found
while giggling.
or talking quietly, in bed.
Outward symptoms
That are in emanance
of the warmth
of the candles' flames burning
inside the muscle
which resides
inside of each of our chests.
Your hand is a blanket for my cheek,
and my lips
are an oasis for your lips.
In the wide dunes of humanity,
we have each other.
Each an expansive universe
to the other
of greater breadth
than all the rest of humanity.

The word all in the last line was written later than the original writing.
In the first line, whether the perch or the night sky should come first is something that I had not settled on initially.
