Whispering Sands

Reflections of my tears,as though a starlit sky
Beneath my breast a heartbeat skips
As I look beyond and sigh...

Beyond the timeless beauty of a deep blue velvet night
Farther than eternity,where always there is light
Miles in the distance,beneath moonbeams and stars
The deserts sands are whispering,shimmering afar

I crave within the cool eve wind,dressed only in a song
A thought plays upon my lips,and moves my tears along
I think about your smile and the way it touches mine
As you tempt me from so far beyond,desert sands of time

Warming to the flesh,one mere taste of yesterday
Fantasies caressed,in our eclipse of night and day
Stolen moments but a few,I make the most of stars
As I listen for the whispers,from desert sands afar

Eyes are of the soul,one heart can beat for two
Beneath my breast a smile is born
Each breath I take is you
