Every time my eyes fall upon her, My heart melts, my knees feel as though they’ll fall from under me and my mind searches for the right words to say. Never are those words found… Her eyes blaze through me, Taking all my pain and worries away. Nothing can I hear but her melodic voice And I am blind to all but her face Her words sew together my broken heart But the strings only hold as long as she is near, My own fears break her work. I have so much I want to say to her But I just can’t get past one question… What do you say to an angel? What is a man to do when He doesn’t trust his own heart? She fills me so full of joy Whenever she is near, My heart doubles in size with Each sweet word that rolls off her lips Yet a subtle voice in my head Reminds me of who and what I am Compared to such an angel as she. I am trapped within my own fears. The sweet melody of her laugh Rings through my soul like a harp Her words, her touch, her gaze Rips at the cage that holds my heart, A cage I have locked so many times out of fear. Love tries to escape the chains that I have bound to it, Closer to escape on every try. Her angelic touch draws my soul Close to hers, And for the first time my fears Surrender to her call and my heart Escapes its bonds into an unknown World where every breath, Every touch, Every sweet utterance, Every charismatic glance Is as precious as life itself. She opens my eyes to a world that Had always seemed foreign to me, The warmth of her heart causes Emotions I only knew in fables Rise from my love-torn soul towards the sky Love grows… --in loving memory of Nikki @>-',--- ------------------ --------------------- ©1999 Guiltborn |

It's obvious you have someone very beautiful to write about...how lucky you are. She will inspire many wonderful works from you. as I see she already has...capture all of these beautiful thoughts of yours on paper, so you can always reflect back in the years that come - and remember. How lucky she is! ------------------ - poet FemmeFatale "The strongest man in the world is he who stands most alone..." Henrik Ibsen (1826-1906) Norwegian dramatist lyric poet |
