<\/p>\n
Your lips gently graze mine<\/p>\n
Our hands melded together<\/p>\n
Their warmth touching my heart<\/p>\n
The ocean mist caresses our cheeks<\/p>\n
The sun begins it’s dip<\/p>\n
Blazing the sky with soft yellows, soothing pinks<\/p>\n
A hint of deep purple<\/p>\n
Birds swipe at the sky with their wings<\/p>\n
Squawking<\/p>\n
Diving for one last morsel before bed<\/p>\n
We click our cameras<\/p>\n
Trying to hold this moment<\/p>\n
for eternity<\/p>\n
But no picture can capture the cold wind<\/p>\n
The soft sea reflecting it’s partner the sky<\/p>\n
The sun leaving<\/p>\n
Ending it’s sovereignty for the moon<\/p>\n
We only speak to say “I love you”<\/p>\n
Knowing those words include the universe<\/p>\n
The sky, the ocean, the birds, the colors<\/p>\n
The soft sand and the knowing<\/p>\n
Moments are fleeting<\/p>\n
Time will bring another sunset<\/p>\n
But not another day like today<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
