Diamonds and Pearls

Soft as a whisper, the moon lights your face,
Silver reflections in love’s warm embrace.
Fingers entwined like the waves and the shore,
I’ve never known love like this before.

Your laughter’s a melody, soft and divine,
A shimmer of stardust, a rare gem to find.

Like diamonds that dance in the candlelight glow,
Like pearls from the ocean, so gentle, so slow.
Every touch, every sigh, a jewel to keep,
A love that runs deeper than oceans and sleep.

Time turns to whispers when you’re close to me,
Golden horizons stretch over the sea.
Every heartbeat is carved into stone,
A treasure that’s ours and ours alone.

Your voice is a promise, a dream laced in gold,
A warmth in the winter, a hand I can hold.

Like diamonds that dance in the candlelight glow,
Like pearls from the ocean, so gentle, so slow.
Every touch, every sigh, a jewel to keep,
A love that runs deeper than oceans and sleep.

No silver or sapphire could ever compare,
To moments with you and the love that we share.
Forever’s a promise, a vow soft and bright,
Diamonds and pearls in the hush of the night.

Like diamonds, like pearls, so rare and so true,
No treasure shines brighter than me loving you.

Thank you so much, Justin. That line means a lot to me--there’s something magical about candlelight and the way it catches love’s quiet moments. I’m so glad the softness and shimmer came through. Always grateful for your thoughtful reads, Poet.
