Within My Reach

Your smile invites me to smile back, it can't be ignored or dismissed and I find I cannot resist; for from the first moment we kissed, my inner walls began to crack. I am enchanted by your charm, and captivated by your wit and intellect; I must admit, we seem to be a perfect fit, so I smile back; I see no harm. We take a stroll along the shore and you take my hand as we walk; it feels so right to laugh and talk untethered from a ticking clock; I couldn't wish for anything more. Hearing music in the distance we start dancing in the moonlight, as we embrace, holding on tight; two swirling shadows in the night merge as one; without resistance. Completing our dance with a kiss we place desire on a tether, and pause our moment together; feeling as light as a feather savoring that feeling of bliss. I met my soulmate on that beach; when fate placed love within my reach.
