The Night's Whisper

Soft whispers in the night,

Hearts entwined beneath the stars.

A tremor in the stillness,

And I bear my heart's scars.

My hand trembles slightly against his chest,

Abruptly, recoiling from the pull of fate,

His intense stare, like mirrors of my soul,

Reaching out and hoping to be whole.

Through the fabric of his clothes so thin,

I feel the steady rhythm, deep within.

What are the odds? It’s a wild chance,

Completely against my racing pulse's dance!

Dark eyes, looking back, a study in trust,

The world fades away, just the two of us.

Skin prickling under the fervor of his grace,

In this moment, we find our place.

Without warning, he touches my face,

A spark ignites in this quiet space.

Closing my eyes, I lean ever near,

So warm, so electrifying, dissolving the fear.

But then I froze, a whirlwind, unknown,

When did these feelings find a home?

Terrified, I can barely breathe,

Wondering if he’s been deceived.

Dark eyes, looking back, a study in trust,

The world fades away, just the two of us.

Skin prickling under the fervor of his grace,

In this moment, we find our place.

I step back, not scared but confused,

Clearing my head, with a heart that's bruised.

He looks back with understanding and grace,

“If there’s something I’m here for, I’ll maintain my place.”

Dark eyes, looking back, a study in trust,

The world fades away, just the two of us.

Skin prickling under the fervor of his grace,

In this moment, we find our place.

My heart now whispers, soft words of regret,

Yet something between us I won’t forget.

With each glance shared, a new chapter ignites,

In the dance of the shadows and the soft city lights.
