Speaking To Your Statue

Emotions soaring into the skies As the footsteps echo off the balconies The crow's accompany my soul's flight I imagine them to be your eyes Carefully watching so you may be there If I should slip and fall into the nothing Their cries are your words of praise And so I smile at my distant reverie Standing next to a stone angel Surely you are prettier than she Her eyes are hollowed; yours full of life You reflect the sun's light with your smile In my dreams you chase the fear away How is it that you do so much without knowing? These things I'd never say to you For fear your eyes would never rest on me again And so through these words I express This love that goes beyond anything The natural world may procure In my mind you are my guardian A statue ever resting in my heart.
