I See Your Halo

There is an ethereal feel to your touch
A celestial aura that surrounds you
Heavenly splendor in your presence
The dance of the stars is in your eyes
I can see your halo
You are not of this world

When you hold me
And caress me
When you make love to me
I close my eyes
Each wave of pleasure propels me
It carries me past the constellations
I see them burst on my sight
And the music of the singing stars
That they record down on earth
The oscillations of the Bella Pulsar
Are merely distant echoes 
Of the rhythm of our love making
Sometimes thundering
Sometimes whispering
Each oscillation of pleasure
A burst of sound
Celestial music
I float in space
Not bound
By anything
The universe carries me
In your arms

I see your halo
And I am safe
For you will never hurt me
You will be gone in the morning
And yet you are with me
Like a guarding angel
I feel your presence
Everywhere I go
Your smile
Is in the sun rays on my skin
Your caress is the fingers of the
Wind running through my hair
Your whisper
Is in the sounds of nature
I FEEL you
Coursing through my body


I see your halo
At night
When you cannot be with me
I see your light in the moon
The stars magically align before my eyes
and I read your messages of love
Notes
Not of this world
Then you appear
And the entire universe sings
And your halo
Lights the dark room of my life
Then our bodies are one
And your halo is no longer your crown
But in expands and lowers itself  
Down the length of our bodies
Enveloping our nakedness
In a glorious light
The light of Eden
And I am lost to this world

I see your halo
I see what no one else sees
I see through your disguise
And I know you’re an angel
An angel in love with a
Simple child of this world
A Woman...
An Earthling

I see your halo
And I am blessed.

Eileen Manassian Ghali

Inspired by Beyonce's song...Halo. One of 
my favorites, especially the line that 
reads..."I'm addicted to your light!"

Well, it can't be me, my halo slipped years ago, thats why I need my Agony Aunt to stop me being a naughty boy lol, you never fail to deliver Auntie, this is beautiful. Oddly enough I was listening to 'If I were a boy' just a while ago. I really love that one. Take care, Regards Richard
