The Sandbar
The air is cool
and the fire 
crackles gently 
in the night
as we sit, side
by side
No words are needed
at the moment, for
we are basking in the
glory of such a starry
night
Moments tick by and
your hand moves to
the small of my back,
gently rubbing all
my cares away
Leaning down, you kiss
my lips, whisper soft and
I wonder if the kiss was
real or imagined
But when I look into 
your eyes, I see the 
love that I have 
yearned for
and doubt fades
to awareness
I want this night
to last forever, just
you and me and
the sky above
Our first night
on the sandbar,
the water lapping
a mesmerizing tune, 
our destiny 
defined
