My Eternal You

In this bright array of light
I see myself shy,
I allow my fears to fright,
still In the dark sky.

From my agony of silence
I tried to hide what’s beneath,
surrounding myself with a fence,
I gasp to catch my breath.

You are the stellar breeze,
I felt this so fast,
you’ve taken me with ease, 
I dazzle at this that it may last.

I’m hopping that you’d stay true 
for I’ve waited so long, 
I’ll never be blue, 
I know that we belong.

Wonderful writing here, Joseph but I'm wondering in the last stanza if you are jumping up and down (hopping) or wishing (hoping) that she stays true? Interesting either way ... smile ... Congratulations on your writing being a feature this week at the Soup!!
