She closed her eyes
The air was crisp
There was a little wind
No sound...
Except for the evening song of birds
She turned and looked into his eyes
Filling a vacuum...
They came together and kissed
Deeply without restraint
When they finally parted
She was breathless...
Her eyes slightly open
Eyes unable to leave him
He looked into her eyes with
Deep intensity....
“I love you” he whispered
“With all my heart” she cried
Closing her eyes to feel his words
A warm breeze brushing past her....
Then leaned forward as they kissed
Softly at first
Then with growing passion
Wrapping their limbs around one another....
They were grasping
Clenching
Entangling
As if drinking from his mouth....
Soft lips
Quenching a thirst
From years built up
Sliding from the wall....
In embrace
Kissing her face
Tipping her head
So he could kiss her neck...
Pulling him into herself
Wanting to hold this moment
Forever....
The valley was quiet except
For the wind
Hearing their breathing
Touching their skin....
He leaned back from her
Saw in her eyes a great
Comprehension....
As they parted
She was still breathless
In the pink glow of the fading light
He vanished in her heart
As he left her breathless in the heat of the night...
