Describing Beauty

If i were to describe beauty,
Could I describe it as what lies in the beholder's eyes?
Could it be,that beautiful flower,
Among the thorny bushes called `The Rose'? 

Could you be that special angel
sent from above?
Well i have always been waiting for you,
Wondering when you will turn up,
Who will bring me sunshine in the rain,
Who will take away my bad days.

I thank God that i finally found you,
Because without you,
I would be alone in the cold and lost,
And my heart would lose its trust,
To the essence of love,
Never to embrace the one i loved again.

Like a lesson,
You gave me a reason to learn,
To learn how to give a chance,
Instead of judging by glance
If i were to fly,
I would join the eagles,
And fly to greater heights,
To be with you,
Because it is what i delight.

I have a reason to love,
To love because it feels right,
To embrace and trust,
Because my heart feels light,
To smile because i can never learn to hide.
