If I Had To Kiss You In The Garden

Sun-dappled leaves, a secret space, Laughter and whispers, a stolen embrace. A blush on your cheeks, a question in your eyes, A moment suspended, beneath endless skies. But courage then faltered, a word left unsaid, The silence stretched onward, a feeling unfed. Did your heart yearn too, with a silent decree? A forever unknown, a missed possibility. Now only the memory, a bittersweet sting, What song would we sing if I had kissed you in the garden? And did you hear them say?
