HOPE
dragging my feet
I feel the tender gaze of an angel
My legs seem rooted to this spot
As if bound by an invisible rope
Memories gushed forth bringing tears in to my eyes
Days before I witnessed the apparition of an angel
An angel clad in snow flakes,
Stealing my heart with his very first glance
We never spoke………our eyes spoke for us
We never met………...our dreams made us close
We became one………our souls became one
But….as days sped past…..
It was time for him to leave
My heart bled……………..
He promised to come back
And take me to his world
Where we are freed from all barriers
A great vacuum filled my heart
From where he was tore away
Now an ocean lies between us
When I smile at the moon
He may be watching the rising sun
Today………as I move through this same spot
Where I first met my angel
My thoughts turn towards my unknown future
An eternity lying before us
Still…..i hope……I dream……I yearn for his return
And that hope alone helps me bear
The grieving pang of separation.
