Poem For Her

I was looking at the moon and thinking
Of a time that was far away.
I turned and saw your face,
It’s the face that makes me want to stay.

Such an incredible smile,
That lights up a grey and gloomy day.
I want to hold you tightly
And drive all your demons away.

I’ll catch a rainbow
And put it in my eyes for you.
I’ll keep you from crying,
And make sure that you are never blue.

When all the colours run like water,
And the room spins round and round.
And the light and dark conspire
To lift me off the ground.

I look into the distance,
And see you standing there.
I’m looking for all the answers,
But are the questions really fair.

I hear your voice on the wind,
Calling my name for sure.
I turn and try to hold it,
But it slips away once more.

You seem to inspire me,
And know what life’s for.
We are new friends,
Maybe one day we’ll be more.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
