deeper than words

it was a warm summer night,
the breeze gently kissing their skin
to the distant sound of the ocean.
the stars in symphony with the fire,
their fire,
providing just enough light
to outline her perfect figure.
she sat on him,
their warmth, no match to the dancing flames
as they shuffled between words and kisses.
the simplicity of the moment
lasting long enough to be a memory
being washed away by the ocean…
but permanent is the impression left on the heart.
