The moon shone in the window
Yellow broken rays
I turned towards you
Wrapped my arm around your waist
With trembling hand
Traced the lines on angular face
Curious
Where does your mind journey
When the God of slumber you embrace

Listening to your breath
Inhaled in
Breathed out with ease
Salty winds off the ocean
Mixed with sounds of rustling trees
Content with the fact
I know who you are
Without ever having met

Then I touched your lips to mine
The universe stopped
Halted time
A smile played about your mouth
Aware of my closeness
Opened your eyes

When the moon shown through the window
Broken yellow rays
I turned and wrapped my arm around your waist

This is a soul paying a visit to a man she fell in love with but had never met in person. They had only exchanged words of unspoken passion
