She sits high above the rest Seeing what others can't Thoughts of the way that the world would be if she could save them all Who is she to choose Who is she The one broken angel Little wings that cease to fly Stop taking her to the level that helps her extend the arm of love Her days are filled with dreams that outlast all other things in life She is the one who they turn to on lonely nights But who Who loves her Who cherishes her thoughts, dreams, and ideas As she looks down the streets seem empty Except for the lonely stranger from a far The one that she calls The Knight His words of praise ring high High enough to touch her ears His tears are heart-felt and free flowing Real He is strong To bone and core Everything that she needed One tear drop falls from her face as a single thought runs through her mind Will he ever know just how much she loves Him Her tears are not heard Muffled by her own pride The broken angel sits alone and waits to see the story unfold Love, Lady Live in my world just once and you'll find yourself enraptured.

Don't worry...angels are looking for knights and knights are looking for angels...sometimes they meet and things happen...James |

Once uon an angel I was in love and things worked out so well that we were in constant heaven........and this happens! I enjoyed reading this! The poet is like a cocoon; in him the caterpillar of the past finds rest, and from him the butterfly of the future emerges. |

Lady, no gentleness needed here. This is outstanding. I love the broken wing reference, and the longing is surreal. But THIS One tear drop falls from her face as a single thought runs through her mind Will he ever know just how much she loves Him Her tears are not heard Muffled by her own pride The broken angel sits alone and waits to see the story unfold I simply loved!!!!! May your dreams always dance to the rhythm of a lover's heartbeat... |

Well expressed. Sometime angels can fall in love with other angels. A quarter of a century must pass, for the writer to understand what and why he writes. |
