It was that fateful day I carelessly fell
Deep into that abyss so called love,
Or was it just into your warm brown eyes
When you turned your head and our gaze met?
Your face, your eyes, your tender lips
Ceaselessly lingered in my every thought;
Your tussled head of soft brown curls,
Your satin skin that glows with pride,
Your chiseled face that melts many hearts,
Your masculine scent that tingled my spine;
In the day I would pine for you,
In the night I would dream of you.

Till our fingers met some starry night,
Strangers drawn by a formless bait;
Shadows of two amidst the darkness of trees,
In the desolate woods a romance unfolds;
Our hands as eyes we saw in the dark,
Closer together our bodies were drawn,
I felt your face drift upon mine,
In a sweet surender our lips gently locked;
That very moment my heart seemed to stop,
Through my body I felt a jolt,
Above the clouds I was lifted,
The roar of the ocean was in my ears.

As we strolled hand in hand by the glassy lake,
We gave our love, the moon our witness;
The soft night breeze gently rustled the leaves,
My spirit rose along with the wind;
I turned around, my eyes sought yours,
My fingers softly stroked your hair;
The balmy moonbeam fell on your face,
I felt my body quiver and crumble,
A tingling warmth ran down to my toes,
Beneath my chest my stirred heart throbbed;
Earnestly I appealed in a quiet voice,
"Shall I ever see you again?"

The night gradually faded away
Broken by the first ray of dawn
Sugar sweet was my first and last kiss
The throbbing never left my lips
You turned around and walked away
In the distance your figure dissolved
Not a trail you left behind
I could never find you again
Your answer never came in a word
My heart and spirit you left behind shattered
Day by day I pick up the pieces
Waiting to hear your footsteps again..
