Heart Of The Matter
Driftwood
We built a bonfire on the beach,
A fire to keep us warm,
You put your arms around me,
And we watched the setting sun,
My head upon your shoulder,
Your breath upon my skin,
The moment overwhelming,
I couldn't take it in,
We sat in silence, listening,
Bathed in a golden glow,
The sun high in the sky above,
The bonfire, far below,
And when the sun had left us,
And vanished for the night,
We fed the flames with driftwood,
And watched the birds take flight.
