Our Secret Garden

 we talk of making love under the stars
and kissing under cascading waterfalls
we talk of being together under showers
and loving kisses under tents of green

our secret garden in our dreams
dancing together to our music
caressing our skin in its melody
drums that beats with our hearts

a union that only we understand
between thin lines of patience
trying to hold back years
that gallop like stampeding horses

we will be there someday
together bright as stars
and fading also together
like receding constellations

we must matter to the universe
that's why we met in this sea
sun and sand created by pens
fueled by our imaginations

we must matter
because you and I
have this secret garden
within our heart and soul.
