A Memory

When stars are hidden from view
And hazy clouds hang in the night
I remember a lover I knew
An ethereal beauty of sunlight

Days were pure with laughter's guise
With imaginary dreams, we'd mine
Surreal the moment, we dropped our disguise
To share a trancelike fervor so divine

Our flowering hearts we'd claim
From the shadowy garden, we desired
This dreamlike world turned to molten flame
An unreal realm, where our souls conspired
