Crystal Ball Girl

CRYSTAL BALL GIRL
Oh crystal ball you show the face I know
in far too many strange and distant dreams,
revealing in a burst of sunlit glow
that lights the dark, where nothing's as it seems.

Just like a waterfall, I breath the freshened air,
and gaze into the eyes deep crystal blue
to see if any end is ever there,
but deep is all there is, and it is you.

I fall forever into love I've found,
with no return--not ever from this place,
and love her eyes, this hallowed sacred ground,
I stand upon, just gazing at her face.

And then you bring the warm and summer rain,
to cool my heart, and ease it of its pain.
