Our Lips, Our Eyes, Our Love

The thick plush carpet piled high
     It cushioned our backs
We fell to the floor, embraced in a kiss

It seemed an eternal kiss
      And there was nothing else in the world
Just our lips, our eyes, our love

As the hours transpired
     Oblivious to time
We greeted the dawn and forged a memory
     To live in our hearts, forever
