At the end of the autumn day

The cold breeze relaxes their mind

And soothes their soul.

In a nearby tree,

Two birds softly caress each other as

The sun slowly makes way for the moon.



A man and a woman

Side by side,

Arm in arm.

Walk together down the pathway.

They’ve known each other only a short time,

Mere weeks,

But by the end of the first class,

He knew.



Friends

Could they be more?

His mind wanders, as he looks deep within

To find the courage he needs,

To reveal

Feelings buried in his heart.



The moon is full

Stars light up the sky

The moment is here,

Take it!



He grabs her hand,

Looks in her eyes,

A moment of silence, feels eternal

Until, finally

He is at ease,

The words he longed to say,

Come at last.

“I love you”

“I love you with all my heart”.



A smile lights up her face

She whispers:

“I love you too.”
