Just Like the Movies

 

A  lover's moon  
blew kisses from heaven
its gentle strokes of wonder
painted our bodies silver
as we lay gazing at the stars
 
A warm wind  
from the mountain
carried jasmine
murmured to the shoreline
and conjured waves  
that sparkled and danced
 
A moment
when you and I
were the first and the last
the only ones
who knew the secret  
of a universe together
understanding  
we would never be apart  
 
A time when  
all the madness of the world
didn't matter
daring to dream
with young love in our eyes
and fresh hopes in our hearts
 
Too bad it didn't last.
