The following is a poem my friend and i wrote together about two beautiful things: The Northern Lights and love. If you notice that it doesn`t really follow standard poetry form it`s because we changed it around a bit to fit the words into a song we wrote.  

You have a light
As bright as the Northern Lights
You fill spectacular skies
With bright pretty colours.
What hurts most about loving you
Is that you must find your own way
And I am not the one
To decide my place in your life.

You know what you want
And you know what you need
But letting go and risking
Is not an easy thing.
Let me take
Away all loneliness
Let us fill the spaces
For one another.

I am free with you...
You love me...
We were written in the stars...
Why can`t you see
What I`m longing for?
Must you hold on  
To what is familiar?
While I am waiting
Always waiting...

I have someone
I know I love
I have found you
And you`re as real as
Those Northern Lights
I watched all night last summer
Those Northern Lights
All night last summer

When will the summer come again?
I want the summer to come again.

                                  -The End


 "The world is never the same
once a good poem
has been added to it."

Your talent shines like those lights,
The ones that shine above those nights
Where lovers lonely feel that only
Life is a series of fights
To get love again.

Beautifully written, Heather! I'd like to buy the CD when it comes out!  

Hope you do become a regular!

 ...every moment of every day...
your still with me in every way.
every poem and song...
every rhyme and verse...
your still here...like a beautiful curse.
your my inspiration, your my fire...
your words fill me with poetic desire.
Every moment of every day...
your still with me in every way.
Janet Marie
*I miss you baby...
I love you, always.*

Beautiful...I hope I'll be able to hear this one on the radio someday!  I'd probably hit a car I'd be so happy for you!  Great Work!
