sand and sky

a smile and a sunset
before we knew the beauty of it all
layed out before us as a path
of brick and stone
meant to last and weather

you stopped for a moment
only to arrive again at the place you left
unsure, unwilling, and curious
drawn by the unknown
you arrived again at our start

taken by the sand and sky
you crumbled under your own desire
leaving nothing but yourself
exposed and confident as you are
only to be taken by a stranger of equal desire
