By Starlight

a villanelle, in which the rhyme scheme is ABA ABA ABA ABA ABA ABAA

By starlight I’ll kiss you.

And promise to be your one and only….

To love you forever.

 

And if this is not true,

I will do anything for you to be near me.

Please say it’s just you and me; together….

 

I promise I will take care of you

as long as there is a you and me

I will love you for the worse or for the better.

 

Constellations surround you

By starlight I’ll kiss you, you see….

And promise to be your one and only forever…..

 

I am telling you that I do.

Please trust me.

For our bond is like a cord that cannot sever.

I will always miss you.

And if you never had that clue

I love the thought of you and me

And together we will live happily.
