Moments That Matter

In the soft glow of candlelight's fading flare,

fingers entwined, skin warm against skin,

every heartbeat a promise, a moment to share,

where the world shrinks down, and love’s dreams begin.

There was magic that night, a whisper of fate,

every sigh woven deep in our bones,

a sacred connection, so fragile, so great,

that held us together in uncharted zones.

Now memories linger, like shadows in dusk,

a night that still lingers, a breathless refrain,

when everything mattered, stripped down to trust,

where two souls collided, unchained by the pain.
