A bird in flight, wings
sweeping across my
awestruck eyes.
Yet I sit in a faraway gaze.
Letting the sight
glide so far away,
a poem for another day
for my dreams are cast
into visions of another's eyes.
And I know in my heart
this sky will turn
into a whole new
story of life,
and I will wait to
catch another glance
when her heart
swoops back around.
Time ticks in delicate beats
when you heart sings so loud.
As day turns to night
I watch the shooting stars
dancing with satellites.
Communicating
a beating heart into a cosmic high.
A ticking clock counting the hours down.
For I know that this sky will change
and I’ll still feel alive with
the same love in my veins.
Colours will blend,
as the morphing painting
bends between every breath
I brush, a swooning flourish
A glowing wish to the moon,
A whispered promise. A face
I wish upon
to soon see
the words of love
I’ve painted into the sky above me.
A moment of elation
A skipped breath. Palpitations
as the flicker of
glowing universal lanterns
sift across the darkness
in blinking flames.
Melting into every image
of which I can dream,
a million different views,
and they all morph back into
the same face I wish to see
smiling upon me. You.
