fall for love

i remember the cloudy sky
as we lay on the cold, hard ground
silently sharing our very different lives
nothing in the world had meaning except you and i

i remember the halo above the mountain
as the dark night was fading to the morning
wishing i could stay in that moment forever
wanting so much for reality to fall for love, if only once

i remember every moment we shared together
as we shattered conformity and popular nature
surrounded by those who dare not speak objection
perhaps the only time we will ever feel so much freedom

i remember, though, most of all, you
your smile, your eyes, your voice, your touch
so naïve, yet so wise; so uncertain, yet so sure
you remain a mystery, though forever more a loved one

One of the most sentimental poems I have ever written, in my mind. It is filled with lines that have ulterior meanings, and the poem itself has a very surreal motive.
