Notes About The Poem

Angel

Your hair sweeps back across your shoulders.
I watch from both close and far away. 
It is beautiful, like a wave of honey.
It is an ocean of gold. 

Your eyes, dance with light,
and I can barely see your face.
All full of emotions, 
that I fear most. 

Happy, warm, kind, you are all that is good. 
I think of you. I dwell on you. I find I am “taken”. 

It happened instantly. No chance of escape, 
as if I ever wished to consider?...
No.  

A fleeting feeling of euphoria, followed by an endless “need”. 

I will walk the earth, seeking to find…
for you…

I will ride winds across the universe,  to bring…
to you…

I will lay down my life, to keep you…
safe…

My dearest flower, star of the heavens,
Let me be for you…
All that I can be, 
So you will see…

me.
