By The Water

The warmth of the moonlight
dancing upon the cool,dark night
beauty seeping from every corner of the Earth
We look out upon a sea of glass
the mirror reflecting the vast, starry skies
I don't even know you,
but the experience leaves me shaking
such a strange feeling,
I wonder if it was only a dream
or maybe some elaborate scheme.
God must be up to something,so many times I've told him
my heart is aching for something real
among the lies they call reality.
I regret not saying more
maybe a "nice to meet you"
but I was left speechless.
What happened? It was so strange.
How is it, that I felt like telling you all?
I had to stop myself
And I left with nothing but a name.
Will I ever see you again?
I can only hope.
All I can think now is,
what a shame,what a shame
I left with nothing but a name.
