A Forgotten Résumé (English Sonnet)

The sun is sinking into seas of gold as lovers sit and talk of used to be's carafes of wine as stories are retold and laughter sparkles on a dusky breeze. A glance recalls the kiss of yesterday how passion burned beneath her silky skin as love revealed a forgotten résumé, desire and hunger linger deep within. As lovers gaze across the empty sand to where the gentle ripples meet the shore we stand beneath the moon while hand in hand, embracing times we lived and loved before. Two lovers, spirits of eternal night, entwined in love's own infinite delight.
