Pearl

Pearl, do you remember
the tale you told of the sea?
Its echo still returns to me,
a whisper in memory

Among the restless waves we sailed
on that vast and wandering ship
you and I, through all that night,
never felt loneliness slip

As we leaned a little closer,
held within a silent gaze,
even our eyes began to speak
in their quiet, secret ways

Moonlight poured across the dark
and washed the night in silver glow
all the words I longed to tell
stayed trembling soft and low

A faint rose smile upon my lips
slowly bloomed and softly stayed
suddenly my arms reached out
and around your waist they laid

And that night the tender rain
fell in whispers, soft and light
like a dream that drifted down
through the silence of the night

Pearl, do you remember
the tale you told of the sea?
Its echo still returns to me,
a whisper in memory
