Rekindled

From the front porch swing I swung and stared The sun was then setting and my eyes were glued A shadowy, scented presence then wandered in front My eyes were taken from the sun, were then upon you I felt urges within me that I couldn’t hold back I needed you, wanted you… forget about the sun I wanted to show you the love there in my heart I wanted it displayed for you…and everyone Then sun then was down and darkness prevailed The moon’s luminescence then brightened the view I still couldn’t look up at the beauty of the heavens My heart had stopped beating, my eyes were on you My hands, though years had passed, still shook every time They got near to your skin, to feel your soft touch Sweat poured from me at the very thought of the loving That moment was there, we need each other so much Love, like a flame, can go out but always can come back Rekindling thoughts are what makes it live, generating fire Seeing you then, that brief moment, that one time Gave us what we needed and rekindled the desires
