We strolled through nights of jasmine bloom
Where silver stars made extra room
Your touch was fire sweet and slow
My pulse the drummer in the show
We whispered vows in borrowed light
Two fugitives arrested in lonely nights
Our breath wove secrets in the air
In languages of skin and prayer
You swore the future loved our name
That fate would crown us without shame
And even time bowed down to see
How love rewrote our destiny
With every kiss the world turned kind
No heartbreak left for us to find
The gods grew jealous of our claim
Two souls that burned the very same
But morning broke a thief in white
And stole you from my waiting sight
No memory stayed no whispered plea
No trace of you remained with me
I reached for warmth that wasn’t there
My hands just held the empty air
The dream collapsed the curtain fell
The truth rang through like chapel bells
There was no you
No sacred vow
No cosmic thread to stitch us now
The love I swore was heaven sent
Was just my mind on sleeps consent
A fevered wish a staged romance
A ghost I kissed in midnights trance
Not heartbreak something worse
The story ended in reverse
For all that love and all that art
Existed only in my heart
And when I tried to make it real
The fabric tore the seams revealed
No lovers gaze
No promise true
Just fantasy
Imagining me loving you
