how do you tell an angel you love her?
by Aaron Michaelyou silence the ghostly echoes
that ravage a night so perfectly still.
the cemetary serenity
of a soul running blind in daylight
is livened by a portrait of literary perfection
that i never thought i'd see again.
i'd give my soul to touch yours
if only it was mine to give.
this frozen moment,
still oceans of time
leave me too much thought
of how it should be.
my own personal ice age
to dwell
on what might have been.
odd that i feel your spark
from such distances.
your breath is the warm breeze
that keeps me from becoming landscape.
your smile is a candle in the distance
giving me a pursuit so i don't lose my mind.
how do you tell an angel you love her
without feeling like she's heard it all before?

| Posted by Angela Nuzzo on 08/12/06 at 04:58 AM I really like this line: "your breath is the warm breeze that keeps me from becoming landscape." If I think about it too much, it tangles my brain, but the sound of those words together & the initial hearing of them is beautiful. I also like the last line: "how do you tell an angel you love her without feeling like she's heard it all before?" Sometimes loving a person is more a benefit to the lover that to the loved. :) |
