Timeless Romance

I take you back to the
30s of the last century
into a film in black and white
An orchestra plays
A crooner sings
We have dinner at a table for two
You offer me a rose
A candle burns
Our dreamy eyes smile
and drown in each other
You reach for my hand
and ask me to dance
And then we move
in a world of slow-motion
We dance colours in
the black and the white
Our eyes lock
You hold me tight
Then we put it on pause
and take the time
for a long, passionate kiss
And we fit so perfectly
into this simple life
Without electronics or wifi
As we don’t need to amplify
or digitalize our love
The only connection that matters
is the thread between our hearts
Our simple though far reaching
romance is timeless
