This composition of mine is in response to another poem by a dear friend (mentioned below).

I wish I could hold that "special" handLay down in the moonlight, looking at the stars on the warm beach sandFollowed by an endless quiet stare into that "special someone's" eyesA glimpse into his soul, trying to put away my cries! Unspoken silence and an unexpressed feelingEvery moment without him leaves my heart achingToo many … Continue reading A Beautiful Fantasy →
