The Joy of the Moment

All of the reasons why I feel this way,
a moment of laughter, a moment of play.
A glance at your smile melts the troubles away,
through all of the seasons, and all of the days.

Then lost in that moment, I looked in your eyes,
I noticed emotions and that you had smiled.
For me.
I can see…

In darkness I lie there, your Joy on my mind,
I search all my dreams, in what I might find.
A gentle, brief touch; a caress of your lips,
A moment in time, held together by a kiss.

Then lost in that moment, I brush against your cheek,
I took in your fragrance, and my body was weak.
For you,
I knew...
