Lost Nights

Do you remember the night
when you showed me the stars in the night sky,
and I found my own sun
shining in your eyes?
Do you remember the night
when you held me close in the cold,
and I discovered the fire
which warmed my soul?
Do you remember the night
when we talked so long into the wee hours,
and the shower of your words
caressed me like flowers?
Time is a thief, stealing all that is gold.
I stand naked now, bereft of your embrace.
I yearn for your touch, your whisper in my ear.
I yearn for the comfort of your face.
