t'was the look in your eyes

when i first spoke of loving you

i remember —

the night as aged as how i hope i would be in your arms over the years

none but the moon and our souls

— dancing in sweet harmony

how angelic was the tender moonlight that adorned us

— thin veil of faerie's dust on supple skin

save for your moon like eyes

coupled with wond'rous notes of laughter

never had i sought anything more divine —

seraphic as though it were my own glimpse of a heav'n i could only pray to enter

insight 'nto the palace of god

t'was the look in your eyes

when i first spoke of loving you

the moment when heart understood purpose

— to beat for none other than you
