- Moonlight caresses your skin
in a way I know my hands never will
- The light in your eyes would
turn to fire if our lips caught one another
-
- As I hold you in my arms, we
linger a little longer than we should
- Neither of us wanting the
moment to end
- Neither of us knowing where
to begin
-
- We pull apart, looking into
each other's souls
- You welcome me back from my
journey with your voice
- Your heart welcomes me back
with your eyes
- Your body
- The very sight of you
- Makes my heart rise in my
chest
- I choke out a pathetic
response
-
- My eyes never leave you
- You do not ask me what is
wrong
- You do not need to
- We sit by the fire
- Both of us silent
- In our own little hells
- Until the final embers of the
fire die
- And our bodies toss in
restless sleep
-
- Silence speaks a thousand
words
- But only four do I wish I
could say to you
- "I love you,
Gabrielle"
