The air was heavy with rain
And the sweet smell of jasmine
Your favorite.
The faint scent of cinnamon
Candles
Clinging to your skin.
No moon tonight.
Only stars
Shining bright enough
To light your face.
The midnight breeze
Urging us onward
To passion.

The early dew
Staining my feet
With teardrops.
Listening to a quiet song
Voiced in a foreign language
Calm, serene, so unlike
The world outside this place.
Your laugh, your smile, your touch.
Here come the butterflies
Embrace them.

A silent magnetic attraction
The soft touch
Of your lips to mine
In a mutual dance
A waltz
Our heartbeats the only music
To keep rhythm
Why must love such as this
Be forbidden?
It should be appreciated,
Shouldn't it?
No heart should be forced to miss
Such a beautiful feeling as this
Love...

Your eyes, glowing
Emerald green in the silvery light
That illuminates this paradise
Making mine fill with mist.
A sweet nostalgia
I don't want to leave here.
I yearn to stay.
Forever eternal
Safe...

I've found my haven
Inside your arms
Where I belong
In such a world as the one
Right outside.
My home
Warm with comfort
Understanding
I cherish each moment.
I cherish you...

The sun marks morning.
Slowly awakening
Upon us.
Too early.
Through the haze of dawn
New life watches us
Silent.
This can't be over now.
Just one more moment.
To last until
Heaven surrounds us
Once again.
One more kiss...
I close my eyes.
Only you...

The was heavy
But not with rain.
No moon tonight
Only stars
Shining bright enough
To light my face.
The faint scent of salt
Tears
Clinging to my skin
The midnight breeze
Urging me onward
Into wistful thoughts
Of a dream visiting me
Each passing night.
Awakening too soon.
