If A Heart Knows

fleeting,
like a sunset
on an undiscovered beach
beautiful,
like the stars
so far from my reach

love,
written in wind
and running water
slips,
falling to the ground
from my fingertips

the road is long
and the journey fast
we plan for tomorrow
but let the moment pass

words,
read between the lines
if a heart knows
the meaning of a story
…once upon a time
