Betting on the Angels

Chasing the blooms of a flower

   is like racing against the seasons.

 

~

That which gives us pleasure

reveals the depth of emotion.

~

 

When silence rules the night,

and darkness is everywhere,

I reach deep into my heart and

it is your voice I hear.

 

The dreams are all so enticing,

that I would sleep my days away,

just to feel your lips to mine. 

and make blues skies out of gray

 

Memories which are haunting,

trivial though some may say,

but to my soul they are the life

when smiles led the way.

 

~

Waiting on a butterfly,

waiting on a dream,

waiting for you to

stroll with me.

 

Waiting on the sunshine,

waiting on the blue,

waiting on the clouds

to dance the night with you.

~

 

Time keeps on moving,

it never stands still,

days into years

record how I feel.

 

My emotions are

stronger each day,

I love your more

than words can say.

 

~

 

I went to the mountain,

to shout out your name,

instead I just whispered

in  a most passionate way.

 

Listen close and you will hear,

the words of love my heart shares.

Nothing can change how I feel,

not even if my heart stood still.

 

I bargained for eternity,

just to hold you close to me.

No matter what you say or do,

you are in my heart and I love you.

 

~

I took to the heavens, to beg and to plea,

that you and I would celebrate for eternity.

 

The combination of heart and soul,

joined together in forever's fold.

Nothing can take you away from me,

we are more than a foolish dream.

 

You are my good morning and good night,

you are the sweet love of my life.

Wake to your tender kiss, is a moment

I wouldn't miss.

 

 

~

 

I'm betting on the angels,

grasping at the stars,

for you and I are one,

whether near or far.

 

 

Joined together,

never to part,

for we collided

both soul and heart.

 

 

I'm betting on the angels,

grasping at the stars,

for you and I are one,

whether near or far.
