Kiss the moonlight
 

In a blush of love her trembling heart fluttered

Under his spell. Where he went, where she let

Him go, a matter of consent, a willing conspiracy

Between fingers and flesh, she hurrying his

Advances, he reading her appetite for love perfectly

The night was warm and the moon in a voluptuous

Mood, big, bright, perfectly formed and so very sexy

They watched as its light slowly advanced across the

Pillow slipping into the narrowest of gaps between

Them and in a moment of sheer ecstasy she glowed

As he touched the moonlight, cupped the moonlight

Kissed the moonlight

This was their dream, this their reality:

I love you but can't touch you for the ocean in

Between, we talk each night, the phone goes quiet

I listen as you breathe. I'm over here, you're over

There, so far beyond my reach, I hesitate, the hour

Is late, goodnight God bless my sweet

I love you but can't hold you you're five thousand

Miles away, we often write, try to be light, but

Heartache fills the page. I too want to be near you

I too need your embrace, I too want every part of

You, today, tonight, always

I love you but can't love you in the way I'd love to

Do, I'd love to tell you all my dreams and nestle

Next to you. Untie a bow, so very slow, a kiss to

Pass the time, a nightie on a pillow, your body

Next to mine
