Satin Silhouette As we stand in the light Your shadow softly falls On the wall beside you now As I take a moment to recall A time when we were merely friends And your beauty I did not see You were just a friend of mine That's all you were to me Then that moment finally came With that step that had to be taken When we would become much more than friends But, our friendship not forsaken The opportunity came as we both knew What the future was to serve No longer could be merely friends As strong feelings began to emerge So now I glare at this satin silhouette That is cast upon the wall I contemplate on the beauty standing before me As I attempt once more to recall When at first I began to notice My friend was so much more She is such a tender soul That I have come to adore |
