POETRY: LEAVING FOOTPRINTS ON MY SOUL

In my realm of fantasy,
Where my most impossible wishes come true
I looked to the stars and wished
And then came you

You descended with grace
With a beautiful smile on your face
You came with love
And wings like a dove

You showered me with affection
And I vowed to be your protection

--- Shielding you from harm
I will hold you in my arms

OH how I wished this could be
But I know tomorrow I?ll wake to see?

Every night my spirit soars high
Into the shimmering, celestial night sky
Gliding past other spirits looking for love
Who anxiously gaze down from above
Searching frantically for the guiding light
That seeks them in the lonely night

I drift over the hills and valleys
Through the dark streets and alleys
Past the destitute and forlorn
Who silently await the grace of dawn
Hoping that it brings them happiness
And rescues them from this loneliness

From the distant astral plains
That are illuminated by comets' manes
I hear you calling out my name
As I instinctively do the same
I see your love's glowing aura
Looking prettier than any flora

As our two souls gently collide
I feel your warmth deep inside
Penetrating every atom of existence
Whilst my spirit offers no resistance
Until our two loving souls unite
Glowing like the moon, Oh, so bright

While we dance amongst the stars
Under the shadows of Venus and Mars
All our worries seem so far away
As we enjoy our nocturnal play
Hoping the sun will never rise
To end our romance in the skies

Just like Orpheus and Eurydice
Journeying across the savage sea
With love being their only guide
As they drift perilously with the tide
Hoping they will safely return
To once again let their passions burn

Our love will always keep us together
And it will certainly last forever
The oppressive tyranny of time and distance
Shall never make a difference

Provided we stay in each other's heart
No force will ever keep us apart

When I awoke this morning,
I saw a single sunflower
Standing in a sea of green summer rice.

Its round, happy blossom reminded me of your face.
Your face, which brings me so much joy.
Your face, that expresses the sweet kindness of your heart.

Your face, whose lips speak such perfect words of comfort to my aging soul.
Your face, so kind, yet so full of
Understanding, awareness, and sensitivity.

This morning I saw a single sunflower
Standing in the bright sunlight,
And I experienced you in my heart.

You are a reflection of me                                         
When I look at you                                                 
I feel like I am staring at myself in the mirror
How can two people be so much alike
Maybe that is why we are together
Do I need to look much further
Or are you the one
Are you my soulmate
Right now I could close my eyes
And picture you dreaming the night away
Oh how I wish I was laying right next to you
So I can feel you breathe on my skin
And kiss you with my lips
When will I see you again
When will you embrace me in your arms
And tell me how much you missed me
When will I hear the whispers of your voice that drive me crazy

Every night, I sleep to see you.
When I do, I wonder if
it's a dream or reality.
Most would say a dream is
fantasy but it's different
to you and me.
A dream is the only place
we could meet.
In our dreams we could go
beyond the reality and fantasy.
I long to dream of you,
to see you, to talk to you,
to touch you.
Seeing you always is a surprise
and a present which is
better than a birthday gift.
This gift is precious knowing
that you would be there
for me every step of the
way and through every trouble.
Your words are innocent, true
and may seem a bit naive
till I know what it
actually means.
Your love will never be forgotten.
And will always be in
the heart.
But, when will I see you again?
I've waited from secs, minutes,
hours, days
to see you.
I want to be able to
see you every day...
I'm waiting to see you again...
And I'm willing to wait
forever..

Those who are not I
Cannot fathom the depths my heart knows.
The whole, it's entirety is owned by one
 She is the one
  For me, destined by an external being.

To me she came that fateful day
And just happened to look my way.
The moment I saw her I then knew
 That I was hers and she was mine.

Nothing compares to looking in her eyes
Touching her face, Or being in her embrace
This I want for all time to be
 For I'm nothing without her, and she without me

As he kneels to her every desire she wonders
if this was her final destiny?
What about the one that went away? Was he the one who held the key?

What if god made a big mistake? He doesn't feel like her true soul mate!

Is he her wrong prince charming? How can she love him with her mind
still wondering? Her heart is longing for the one she lost.
As he tries to make all her dreams come true, she hides her tears
as she whispers "I Love You Too".
Why can't her heart feel complete bliss? Why was he the one
who held that special kiss? She doesn't want to feel empty like this!
Was it a mistake to marry him? She wonders every night what might
have been.

Where did the one she fell in love with go? If only she could go back
and change the past she would have made his love for her last,
and forgive and forget the pain he once caused.
He is not the prince charming she wanted him to be,
he is only her husband, but not her final destiny.

The one who knew all, her secrets and fears is now gone forever
and she bears these lonely tears. Happily Ever After is not
at all what it seemed, but maybe this was part of god's little scheme.
Why did it all have to disappear? Her heart is still aching
her mind isn't clear. Where did he go? Where could he be?
The one she truly loved her Final Destiny

I look into your eyes
Can I believe what I see?
Why do I go to you blindly?
I love you
But I am afraid
Afraid of what might happen
Afraid of my life without you
My life without your love
Would you ever hurt me?
Without realizing what you have done
Without thinking of me?
Why do I trust you so much?
Yet fear what you may do?
When we say goodbye
I have doubt
But I know
You love me
And I trust you
I don't know why
But I do

You are a work of art
that touches me deep in my heart
Your beauty blends
--transends
radiates through your a beautiful complexion
that it gives my heart ressurection
You may not appear to be a lot
but you put my heart deep into thought
for you are rare like a third shoe in a pair
and there is nothing to compare
to how I feel about you in my heart
because you are a work of art

You are a work of art
that will never go sour or tart
you are the one who made me believe
that true beauty can be achieved
I admire your every detail--
all your rich colors from bold to pale
I admire your beautiful scenery
for it is beauty that can't be made with any machinery
The way you came about will always be a mystery
but you will always be remebered in my heart as important history
Your image will never retire
because you are something I will always admire
for your beauty will never depart
because you are a work of art

Here eyes are the pale brown leave on a faded postcard. Her skin is luminous and her face seem to give off light from some internal source. Her feature are perfectly symmetrical. Her beauty stands out even in a crowd of superhuman chic people, because she's not wearing that much make-up and she obviously doesn't give a dam about fashion. I try to stop myself from staring but no one else in the street seem to have even noticed her arrival

Sometimes You feel
a million miles away...
but I go on loving you

and when the world is gone
and I am gone
and all the birds,
grass, trees and air
are gone

The universe itself
will testify that I loved...
That I love you.

I close my eyes and think of you
You used to be a stranger I hardly knew
Ever since I've known you, I've been in a daze
You've got me going crazy, this time I'm not afraid
You wiped away my tears, like no other has done
You touched me the right way, you didn't want to rush
As our lips touched and our bodies came close
I saw us together, never wanting to let go
Who'd ever think I'd fall this hard?
You've opened my eyes, a walking angel you are
I want to be with you because you set me free
You have shown there's alot inside of me
I feel I need you, like you're the one for me
Leaving footprints on my soul, an everlasting peace
