When love was pure as honey
pure as silk, like morning dew
when you kissed every inch of me
and I each inch of you
we held on to each other
as if space would make us part
I laid my head upon your breast
and listened to your heart
when your fingers combed my hair
and whispers promised secret thoughts
when we looked into each others eyes
and felt that we were lost
when I tasted your saliva
and the salt inside your tears
when you cut my hair
and said you'd keep a lock for later years
when we felt the warmth and tension
of our skin when making love
when the slightest touch
would send a shiver to the core of us
when we looked at one another
and we thought each others thoughts
in that moment
in that time
when we were one
we were in love.

Charles M. Moore
