Our Poem

My green eyes were struck beneath the moon light
They watched as red butterflies flew across the night sky
On this warm summer night
I watched as they fluttered out of sight

Meeting you was like a love story
Your delicate kisses send my heart pounding
Our romance make shooting stars crash land 
Yet sparkle like star dust

Champagne is bursting as we laugh on the beach
A toast to a good life and a kiss on the cheek
This beautiful moment slowly sinks
It is forever cherished between our memories

I still remember the first time we kissed
Those red butterflies came back from the abyss
They made speaking hard to resist
They made my heart stop and stomach twist

The night is young and so are we
Squeeze some lime and drink until three
A night for spice and sweet poetry
A night for breaking into heaven with a bottle of tequila

As we swim into blue waves that once touched rock bottom
Sunlight breaks through to cover the beauty of darkness
Our skin bathed into the salty depths of the sea
Feeling the cold of this enchanted breeze

I am in love with the way you look at me
