I want to walk through a garden with grass at my feet-
And listen to the wind and again feel complete.
I want to be myself again, and not hide from anyone-
To let them know from me and my heart, that what is done is done.
I want the wind to whisk me away from my imagination-
To send me on my way, breathless with its admiration.
I want to see the world again and know that I belong;
So, that I can open my eyes to see God has been here all along.
I want to write of the pictures that I can not paint-
For then, all my passions would be taken without restraint.
I want to be that girl that nobody can see, for just one day;
Then maybe I would pay attention when that girl passes my way.
I want to hold the ones I've lost, and say my last goodbye;
Then try and figure out on my own, why God chose them to die.
I want to tell my secrets to the world, then see who would still be at my side;
So then maybe, just maybe I wont have to hide these tears I've cried.
I want to be more than a Juliet; I want to find the Romeo that is mine-
Whose heart is his own, and whose eyes are truly divine.
I want to watch the sun rise every morning without haste;
So, that every morning I will remember that life was not meant to waste.
I want my fate to be the one thing that no one will  forget;
Then I could wish upon a star with my destiny already set.
I wish that I could take one piece of myself, for you here today,
For you to keep, for you to remember,that this is the me I portray.

The strands in your eyes
That color them wonderful
Stop me & steal my breath...

Rayne,
what a lovely poem of wanting and hoping. May you get all you wish for.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown
