A Single Moment of Love

Your eyes the color of the evening sky Filled with a lover's passion Your lips leave a sweet taste Of honey that lingers on my tongue Your touch burns right through me Increasing my desire To feel your arms around me In a warm embrace Your voice Smooth like silk Flowing through the air Like a bird perched on a thin twig Singing its morning song And when you tell me you love me I close my eyes Cherishing every syllable Every word that leaves your lips You're like a sweet treat That I may never taste again So I savor your sweetness On the tip of my tongue Holding your image In my memory
