No Masquerade Ask me the hour and I'd offer my silence, question me about the day and I'd have nothing to share. Yet speak to me her name and I'd come to light, tender in recall of her scented hair and the soft steps of my eyes along her bare back. In a dim and quiet room naked and unashamed, her thoughts passed through white cotton in the calm of each breath upon my lap. Those moments quickly sailing to hours so simply done -- no masquerade. We together alone in silent touch, a brighter day could only seem fleeting. Yet, this prelude to a wedding song but a brief hello to the mornings ever to wake. Robert Joseph ~fc~ |

This IS beautiful...reminds me of a time, when just the sound of a certain someone's voice could clear all the clouds out of my mind's sky...and the joy would continue on into the night to light up the darkness! What an extraordinary love...sigh, sigh, sigh... |
