Moonlit Love

472

underneath the bright moon light
with the stars in full view
we walk hand in hand
along the sea shore

whispering sweet nothings
so softly that only we can hear;
the waves gently caress our feet,
the cool night air lifts us off into the clouds;

basking in the moonlit rays,
as stardust falls from above
hand in hand, eye to eye,
we stand locked in our embrace;

surrounded by captivating starlight,
majestic moon shine on this night,
with the blackened skies as the backdrop
love radiated and drenched us in absolute euphoria;

with our romantic cruise nearing its end,
under the stars on a moonlight bay
there is more to this i know,
every dream can come true;

as the brilliance of the shooting star
drifts down to earth
here is a chance to wish;
time to wish for something new;

all that i seek is
a place for you and me,
dream of a happily ever after,
make this love sure and true;

with dawn creeping over the horizon
tears well up inside me and
the dream vanishes in a poof
for night time is my time to drift away
from the reality’s tears that fall day!
