eggshells and petals
fragile paths that we tread
pastels and metals
moments strung on a thread
poolside umbrellas
and soft white, twinkling lights
rose buds on a trellis
on a warm summer night
first loves and romance
music played way down low
jumping at the chance
to let those feelings show
chiffon and glitter
like stars that fall from the sky
making hearts jitter
likened to angels as they sigh
all leading to somewhere
maybe places we've been
or escaping in slumber
as a stranger in our skin
drifting into dreamlands
both awake and asleep
starlight dancing on hair strands
with promises meant to keep
replenished by sunlight
and the breezes that blow
holding memories so tight
swearing to never let go
