Darkness of acceptance had fallen over me Only illusions of what might be remained Until our eyes locked...and you set me free Happiness had been eluded... unattained In your eyes I found the warmest gold The color of sunsets across the ocean Glimmering facets of amber explode As you set my soul into motion Within your arms I touched heaven’s gate Strong and secure, protector from the storm Within a shelter of warmth you create A clouded peace took it’s silent form From your lips fell heat to melt my soul Like falling stars from ebony skies A gentle kiss engulfed me...making me whole Transforming me...as dreams materialize Falling deeper with each breath I take Closer to you as each moment passes soundless Drowning in this euphoric lake Eternity’s promise is ever boundless No need to speak...just look in my eyes As uncertainty fades like rose petal dew Cover me in the velvet of your sighs Free falling into golden sunsets with you If this is a dream...let me dream a moment more Allow me this walk in the light of illusion Upon the emotions of completeness...I soar In your arms I’m free of tormented confusion Hold me till darkness has nowhere to hide Until only the rays of sunshine fall like rain Basking together in the waves of serenity’s tide Where only Golden Sunset Dreams remain Swim in the weave...don't examine it~ [This message has been edited by Butterflies_dont_cry (edited 01-07-2001).] |

You knew, dear, you knew...what you would do to me with this piece...and I shall gently place it in my library, where it belongs, for it sings...as do you... be well my friend...and know that this shall be a golden day... |

"Falling deeper with each breath I take Closer to you as each moment passes soundless Drowning in this euphoric lake Eternity’s promise is ever boundless" "No need to speak...just look in my eyes As uncertainty fades like rose petal dew Cover me in the velvet of your sighs Free falling into golden sunsets with you" Ahhhh ... Butterflies ... too many wonderful lines to copy, this is just exquisite! Beautifully written! Best wishes, /Kit |

It seems we both have gold on our minds, but I much prefer dreams to words This is so romantic and beautiful Each verse melts like the heat of love Liz |

If this is a dream...let me dream a moment more Allow me this walk in the light of illusion Upon the emotions of completeness...I soar In your arms I’m free of tormented confusion Hold me till darkness has nowhere to hide Until only the rays of sunshine fall like rain Basking together in the waves of serenity’s tide Where only Golden Sunset Dreams remain ===================== Heres to happy endings and dreams come true .... we are all way past due me girlie... beautiful poem of a golden promise ... anticipation looks good on ya me SS so nice to see your name here this morn ... you've been missed love ya me butterfly me Am I loved by my words Will my vows weather the tide Bended knees can forsee all the rhythms of life And a heart can be held without pride ~Vante |
