Our Romantic Evening

Lipstick on
a champagne
glass, a single
long stem
rose

A slow
dance under
a bright full
moon, our feelings
so exposed

Our food
is cold, but
sustenance, is
so far from
our minds

On this
night, alone
at last, our
hearts begin
to bind

I’m in
your eyes
and you’re in
mine, we’re both
within a trance

The love
that lingers
through the air,
surrounds us
as we dance

The scene,
this evening
fits the mood,
everything here
is right

I have
my love,
alone in love
this perfect
moonlit night
