Contrast

I
am pale as the moon
tinted with peonies.

You
are soft lunar eclipse,
a bright embrace of shadow
arousing the stars.

We
are limbs intertwining-
a tangle of branches,
paper birch and wild cherry,
that cast shadows on snow
even in the dark
Visible with eyes shut tight-

Love is blind.

Hello softly,
This is just bordering on terse-verse. It is possibly shorter than you or I would have liked...but you say a lot in a few verses. More than the terseness, I am aware that you are committed to the end line. I like the way you dd not deviate and that you kept your intent just visble but not distractingly so.
Though the message is simple it is leaning towards the metaphysical. After the first stanza you avoid similes ( displaced, but pale AS the moon) in favour of strong metaphorical statements...you are ( not you are like ). So my first suggestion is to improve the consistency by changing the first stanza:
"I
am the moon,
pale and tinted
with peonies. "
I have added punctuation. That is for me, but this is my crit so that's OK.
Second stanza, likewise:
You
are the soft lunar eclipse,
a bright embrace of shadow,
arousing the stars.

The last stanza can take a break because it is a summation, an amalgam of what has gone before. It is the conclusion...the commitment.

We
are limbs intertwining.
A tangle of branches,
paper birch and wild cherry,
that cast shadows on snow:
visible in the dark,
even with eyes shut tight.

Love is blind.

I read this OUT LOUD to get the pauses. I read it as I saw it. It was a good experience, but it was my experience.
Overall, you have painted a Chinese willow-pattern garden in winter, two lovers doing what lovers do; and it works, the "me you us" form... BUT a lover would put his love first. So, I would change round stanzas 1 and 2.
Be careful of the creeping cliche...they spring out when not expected whenever a poet tries to be poetic. This I know.
Best,
