The blue in the sky

hid behind the dusk

above the mute sea.

We walked,

feeling flowing touches

soul to soul

just you and me.

The things you said

I never knew

you thought or felt.

The things I said

are from my heart to yours.

The stars shone down on us

as we stood

with quivered smiles,

to reserve this breath forever

was our desire.
