Silent Honesty- The Loudest Voice

We'll walk tonight out by the lake.
I'll take your hand in mine
in silence while the moon stays
firmly in the sky.
We'll find a star to claim
and name it ours so
in it we will shine.
And on the dock we'll sit
and stare --
as the last of summer's air
is far and near to us,
we'll pretend for just a moment
that the world is just
us two.

As time stands still
like a photograph which will never
change,
we'll kill the fear
of days to come.
I'll give you just a few of some
of my thoughts
and we'll embrace until
we meld with the moon
and climb into our star
head first,
without the faintest
glimpse of autumn
in the air.

Thanks so much for the welcome. This looks like a very interesting place. I think I'm going to have fun here.

BTW, I tried to get into the "adult" forum but it's marked "private". How does one gain entry? I'm curious as to what that's all about.

Thanks much.
