Falling In Love

The lightest steps come when love is in bloom,
And hearts yearn to open in full display
Enter this garden, the time we consume
To dissolve and quietly float away
Tender fingers merge like a woven lace
In anticipation, the coming days
Love opens its heart in a warm embrace
To face this new world with its blues and grays
Where the kindest eyes pierce deep to express
To dream of hearts binding ever tighter
A sanctuary where lovers confess
And the heart once dark is glowing brighter
Along the farthest hills where lovers go.
Are two silhouettes, with love's afterglow
