Under the moonlight the lake was still as glass.
Reflections, like a portrait mirrored in the darkness.
Sitting at the water's edge, my head upon your chest-
The beating of your heart, like thunder in the silence.
The stars, like diamonds, suspended above
Cast a soft glow to your copper skin.
Your hand gently caressed my hair, the night air is cool.
Wrapped in your arms I feel as if the cold is peeled away
By the warmth of your love.
Your eyes reflected what you did not say.
I knew then I had found the love I have been searching for
All these years.
That night, under the autumn moonlight by the lake,
I fell in love with you again, as I do each time I see you.
