We stood under the moonlight
The birch throwing about strange shadows
Our shadows got lost in them
Or did we become one ourselves?
A truant breeze slapped against our faces
Our hands entwined and we simply walked
The leaves sighed, the wind whispered and our past murmured
Stories of our smiles, our love, of battles
We fought and lost…
Time Marched on, worlds changed, our bodies and faces did too
But today, under the cloak of the stars
As they whispered secrets deep,
We traced our history amongst the shriveled up roots of trees
And the fading hush of the nightsky
In each other’s arms, we traced the journey of our several lifetimes
And time stood still for an infinitesimal moment,
Peering at us, soul to soul, soul over soul, soul with soul
And this is how she found us, the past draped about us like a cloak…!
