Which Story?

Shape-shifter, side winder, star gazer, 
Which story did you weave of me way-farer?

I wrapped cloud blankets on smouldering desires  
You kindled smug rains in untouched kisses of fire 

But who built those temples of goosebumps, ocean waves
When I fashioned you, me, and we of two knaves

We drew then nectar from forgotten poems of fingers
Lips to skin, earth to moon, that night's fragrance lingers

Tomorrow is a strange planet, oh how old is its moon!
My pages lie open in dreams of a secret silver tune 

Word-blender, yellowed-corner-pleasure for a reader;
Which story will you write,  dear way-farer?
