and it would have been ecstasy
--you and i--
dancing beneath
the fireflies
and moonlight.
but the sky murmured promises of rain.
and i saw
the way you looked at her.
i would never break you
the way she did.
you're the missing half
of my empty soul;
and i would give my life
for a moment in your kiss,
an instant in your love,
an eternity in your whisper.
but you never see me
the way you see her...
and it would have been ecstasy
--you and i--
dancing beneath
the starless sky,
evolving
into man and woman.
and as this final song
melts into silence,
i can almost hear...
your heartbeat.
