Within My Reach
Your smile invites me to smile back:
it can't be ignored or dismissed.
And I find that I can't resist:
the very first time that we kissed
my inner walls began to crack.
I am enchanted by your charm,
and captivated by your wit
and intellect: I must admit.
We seem to be a perfect fit:
so I smile back; I see no harm.
We take a stroll along the shore:
and you hold my hand as we walk.
It feels so right to laugh and talk
untethered from a ticking clock:
I couldn't wish for anything more.
Hearing music in the distance:
we start to dance in the moonlight.
And we embrace, holding on tight:
two swirling shadows in the night
merge as one; without resistance.
Finishing our dance with a kiss:
we place desire on a tether.
And pause this moment together
feeling as light as a feather:
savoring that feeling of bliss.
I met my soulmate on that beach
when fate placed love within my reach.
