Mystic bridge



Moon, wind, and fleeting moments
A second lasting till the end of time
City lights, watermelon, ouzo
A mystic bridge between your world and mine

Unknown yet uncommonly familiar
Strange yet it felt strangely right
Up there on a city rooftop
Unspoken words and the mystic scent of ouzo
are all that will be left behind

A dance of chances on the border
With one foot in and one foot out
A touch of skin caused warmth within...
A mystic smile, a silent sigh...
