My love and I went out a'walking,
that is when we both ceased talking.
Loving, being free and alone together
despite the rain and inclement weather.
Yes the rain fair soaked us through
but it felt just like a shower for two.
All of this along with chirping birds
the moment we stopped using words.

radiating the night sky

the shadow that waxed and waned
through the phases of her life

that your presence
is what made her whole

but like the full moon
she shone brightest
without you
