Scent of an Angel
I take a breath
The sweet smell of you
Still fresh on my jacket
The smell of leather is no match
For that heavenly scent
Of you
I hold it close one last time
Before hanging it in the closet
Touching it one last time before
Closing the door
Closing my eyes and re-living
The night as I slide down
The door and sit
I stand up and go to my room
Get undressed and hop into bed
My thoughts of you are like
Every love poem I have ever read
Every love song i have ever heard
You are my dreams
I look out at the starry night
Without really thinking- I blow
On the window
And slowly write your name
With my fingers
Imagining it was your face
Instead of the cold window pane
I lay in bed
Hoping to someday
Wake in the moment
Where I can watch you sleep
Gently kiss your soft lips to wake
You
Cherish that certain moment
When you first open your eyes
And I can see my reflection
As you innocently stare deep
Into me
You tell me to climb back into bed
With you
We just lay there all weekend
Holding each other
The world may lay shattered and empty
Outside
But we are warm-
United as one
We are in that moment in life
That seems so close to heaven
It's almost unbelievable
Trust in me
Some of your dreams can come true
Risk is all that is involved
Risk is my friend
I have had many long talks with 'risk' about
You
He tells me to go for it
For without risk, who else would know
How life is to be
When I look into your eyes
I see everything I want to be
Everything I need to be
Everything you want me to be
All reflecting in your angelic eyes
I could tell you that I love you
But what exactly do those three words mean
'I' is me
Love is a four letter word for an emotion
That cannot be described, it's just felt
'You' is, well, you, silly =)
So instead I choose to write things to you
Just to let you know that you ARE loved
'Cus I couldn't let you go to sleep without knowing
I couldn't let you go to sleep without feeling
I couldn't let you go to sleep without... me
