Hold your tongue, my dearest
Speaking will only ruin this moment
Suns are exploding behind my eyelids
Stars are miniscule inside my mind
To let them go is a wonder, that only you can release
To keep them stored, an abomination

My dearest, hold your tongue
Let your waves wash over my shores
Soothing tides replenish my love
The moon pulls you towards me
Holding lunar thoughts of us entwined
My darling, hold your tongue

Awww, communing in silence. As you say, there are those times when spoken words can spoil the moment. winky wink

A sweetly romantic and coquetish write!

Wonderful, Tina.  I just came back from being at the ocean - and I so can relate to this.  I love it and am saving it.

Thank you,
Alison
