Found among the silence,
reflecting upon the calm,
the face of my desires
moves quietly along the shore.
I look in front of me,
behind me he does not exist.
His form exists here,
across the river of my dreams.
Those eyes that speak so deep,
stare at me again,
awaiting with outstretched hand
for me to take that first step
to join him on that other shore,
to reach him where he stands.
Dare I join him,
or forever hide among the shadows.
