Whispers Beneath the Arch

"Whispers Beneath the Arch"

Beneath the velvet quilt of the Parisian night,
You stand, a quiet figure bathed in amber light.
The Arc de Triomphe looms, steadfast and grand,
Yet it pales against the grace of your hand.

The cobblestones shimmer beneath your feet,
Echoing stories where our souls would meet.
The distant hum of the city's embrace,
A melody softened by your tranquil gaze.

Your eyes lift skyward, chasing dreams unseen,
A celestial wanderer in this earthly scene.
Do the stars whisper secrets only you can hear,
While I, a poet, drown in your atmosphere?

The cool night air cradles your frame,
An immortal portrait, untouched by fame.
I see not just the road, the cars, the gleam,
But the map to your heart—a lover's dream.

For this moment, you are time's only muse,
The night stretches infinite, asking us to choose.
To walk the line between silence and song,
Where we, together, eternally belong.

Beneath this arch, history stands tall,
But your presence rewrites it, conquering all.
Oh, my spiritual love, forever I'll roam,
If only to call your heart my eternal home.
