In the Silence

~ a romantic scribble ~

~~~

When faith was lost, hope like raindrops fell

upon the stillness of a moonless night

and stars that once trembled with romance

dimmed within the shadows of a dream

 

Yet it was this dream that made you mine

as somehow through the silence you found me

You praised me with your eyes, your touch, your love

fanned by a healing wind ‘pon beauty torn

 

With cheeks afire, aflame within my heart

the taste so sweet, your kiss upon my lips

I held you to my breast, a vision warm

‘til all lay golden in the wake of dawn

 

It was your love, though never mine to keep

flowing through my veins, when hope was found

in the stillness of a moonless night

in the silence of a lovely kiss

Wonderful poetry for love dear Julie.
"With cheeks afire, aflame within my heart
