Ray of Light aka "Pretty Wings"

To a person I once felt deeply connected to. He was a gem :)

                                            ***************************


Re-inviting the forgotten emotion of bliss, my heart has accepted but you are still greatly missed.


Had I erased the thought of a better union, from past sinners, selfish liars?


I'd been taught by them trust is only visible in fairy-tales, told by expert lips ejecting no remorse.


I still say...so hardened is my heart, I can't hear my soul-mate's knock.


Cemented by the deceit I was fed by those I'd hoped to grow with.


This love is a myth, not understood nor respected...hard to grasp with one breath.


But...you came along, engulfed me with unfamiliar warmth then left to sort yourself out...


Now you have sneaked your voice back into my head, leaving me wishing you remained more than a friend, the forces seem to disregard us sinners and just lead us to sad dead ends.


We dream of rare garments and jaw-dropping bank statements...I dream of having your face as my daily sight, happiness embedded in my eyes from your humble treatment.


I wish to see more of you, live knowing we walk on the same earth and value your own place of birth.



How you see me amazes me, maybe you don't see me as being amazing.


Your actions have been contradictory to your words that fulfilled me.


Once again I wonder...exactly where do you fit in my life painting.


Behind my pains and years of hoping, wishing I too would find a soul-beauty like you.


Or maybe you'd be the speck of dirt ruining my colours and joys of my life, forcing me to completely expel you from my sanity.

You'd become my partner-to-be, letting my lips celebrate the beauty of your name,


letting the random know about this special being that set my soul aflame.


My Ray of Light.... Forever my favourite, the turmoil’s and joy, have come and gone but how special you are to me will always be without a doubt.
