Anything The first time I saw you was in a dream A glimpse of how beautiful life could be You looked just like an angel without wings A little gift from heaven sent to me You slipped away after a warm embrace When I woke up I left me heart with you I spend my nights hoping to see your face I spend my days wishing dreams can come true I'd do anything to show you I care When you cry I will wipe away your tears When you need a hug I'll be standing there I'll hold you until your pain disappears I look for you in the face of strangers Hoping one day I will finally find you there Because since the day I saw my angel There's nobody else that can compare I love every little thing about you You don't have to act or wear a disguise I will love you no matter what you do You will always be perfect in my eyes I'd do anything to say I love you Buy you a box of candy from the store Call you just to say I'm thinking of you Leave a dozen roses at your front door We can walk along the beach holding hands And listen to the waves hit the shoreline We can sit and watch the sun meet the land Then count all the stars that were left behind I want to eat dinner by candlelight With your face the only thing I can see I want to cuddle with you through the night Then wake up with you sleeping next to me I don't care as long as we're together Because heaven is anywhere you are I can't think of a place any better Than right here lying in each others arms
Wow. Now THAT is what poetry is supposed to be. I don't think I could heap enough praise on this one, nor does it need any; it's good enough on it's own. But I had to say something. (and on a technical note, excellent rhyming. It was so subtle that I didn't notice it till near the end, which is good, because that means it's not a distraction)
Amen, brother. Particularly about the rhyming. This is a beautiful piece. Thanks for sharing, man. <3
