I hear the sound of a stream.
I hear the birds in the trees,
across my skin a cool breeze.
As I walk back to the car,
I begin to cry because you are so far.
I look up from the ground,
and realize what I have found.
Water falling from overhead,
as I dream I see you instead.
So tall and so handsome,
I think, can I hold you for ransom.
Not wanting to let you go,
as we watch the water flow.
Together now in this hidden place,
hoping no one else finds our space.
Holding you so tight,
watching pelicans take flight.
I feel safe in your arms so strong,
how can my dream last this long.
I realize you are real,
wondering if you feel the way I feel.
Holding you so close,
this is where I want to be the most.
Staring into your beautiful eyes,
hearing your contented sighs.
Hold me and never let go,
I want to feel this love grow.
You are so warm and strong,
I want to know this is not wrong.
Here hidden from sight,
in our new found paradise.
