Under the blanket of the dark sky
Lit up by stars
They lay next to each other
Their hearts thumping wildly
Wanting to be one but holding back…
The world was fast asleep, and the wind
Hummed a mellow tune
Their chests heaved together
They breathed as though they were one
So close, yet so far apart…
They pulled closer… and closer still, until
They could hear each other sigh
He looked at her
She looked away
Their lips trembling to meet…
And then…
Their lips, parched for love, finally met
In a kiss so divine
Their hearts, united, beating as one
Their breaths, in harmony with each other
Their bodies, entwined…
Crazily passionate, hungry for love
Their lips, locked
Their souls, one
They lay in each other’s arms
And let themselves drift away to sleep…
And the world around was in a deep slumber
Oblivious, unaware
Of the union, the communion
The moment, the night,
That magical night…
(PS: This is NOT a work of fiction or imagination. I was afraid that the memories of that special night would fade away with time. This is an attempt to capture those moments in words so that the memories of that night remain with me forever. Dedicated to him...)
