One Special Night

One Special Night

Your lips stole my breath away.
Your kiss made my soul cry with joy.
The touch of your skin against mine made me tremble.
The passion and love in your spirit made my heart dance.
The warmth of your arms brought me comfort.
Your trust made me love myself.
And now, with a vacancy where that spark would glow in your eyes,
My soul wilts.
The distance of a few feet is marked by a new wall between us,
The longing to bring it down again makes my body writhe.
But I cannot make your heart love as mine does.
We smile. We embrace. We blink.
We go on.
Somehow, we go on, and I know my heart will never change.
My soul lies in wait for you, alone;
Alone, but cherishing and always reliving one special night.
For one night, I was loved.
