Camping

Time stands still Sand through the hourglass Has stopped flowing Calmness surrounds us A feeling of euphoria A feeling of being complete Fills the air in the night Moonlight shines upon your face Your eyes like the stars In the vast open sky Heat reaches out its fingers Fighting off the coolness The glow from the fire Sound of crackling embers Mixes with the noises Of life existing in the moment Reminding us of how real That this moment is As we are wrapped up Holding each other so close Because we don't want to lose One second One minute One hour While sand isn't flowing While time has stood still Just for us to be together Frozen in time forever As we sit on a rock Overlooking the valley below Wondering if just maybe Others are doing the same Living in the moment given Fulfilling the longing of another Feelings never felt before Wanting the moment to last No longer feeling alone No longer feeling incomplete After years of searching After years of hope fading Finding someone to fill The cavern in your chest The void that only grows You can't explain it Words will never suffice What you thought you'd never find Its here right now In this moment In the air In the arms In the moonlight On the rock Overlooking the valley Stars hanging above Just for us To keep forever
