The place WE were was beautiful

The place We were was beautiful
Tortured by lust
Tangled by love
We sat there for hours
Waiting for night to fall
The thick air stood still
The stars glistened
Passing time was unnoticeable
It was just a pathway
For graceful beauty to reach our thoughts
And change our perception
Of reality and dreams
Just in that moment
Love's secrets were revealed
Judgements were ignored
The moment was pure
The moment was ours
Our hearts were consumed with its sweet intention
With its irresistible illusion
Unaware of all else around
We could have stayed forever
In that place where beauty is delivered
But its beauty played a trick
It began to fade
We began to notice time passing
Our moment became a memory
The place We were was beautiful
And we'll chase its beauty forever after
Yet its beauty continues to test us
Cause while it continues to fade
Its memory never fades
It serves as our reminder
That our moment would have never happened
If our hearts didn't want it to in the first place
It serves as our reminder
That while beauty fades
Our hearts grow deeper and wiser
And as passing time finally catches up to us
It slows us down long enough to stop and think
That even though beauty fades,
We only choose to hold the memory
Because its beauty is what shaped our hearts
The place We were was beautiful
We could never forget it
Yet now here I am
And there you are
Time is passing us
Our hearts begin to wonder
Just how strong our memory holds
Doubt creeps into our thoughts
And changes again our perception
Of reality and dreams
And in that moment
Love tests us
We go back in our unfading memory
To that place We were
And while in our minds that place is still so beautiful
We can't help but wonder
Where are We.

Dear Poetess J. b. Hammond,
Your above verse is highly romantic in nature, melancholic in its mature, lovable, but lengthy...I enjoyed. Keep writing more and more.
Regards, Love & Good luck, Blessings
