Poem Comments

for someone special

Open your eyes
The morning is prying at your lids
Beauty is clawing at your insides
Let it out
Its seeping through your mouth
In words I can not repeat
Your voice holds them together
A melody I wish I could immitate
And that fragile smile that follows
I will do my best to protect it
The world is a cold place
And you should be sheltered
When the moon comes out
And the sun is sleeping
I will hold you
I will keep that smile safe
No harm done
I want to preserve your being
Cherish all that I have come to love
So when daybreak comes
I might hear that sweet voice once more
Its your inner beauty
Sneaking past your lips
Grant me a kiss
So perhaps I can feel it inside me
And you will see it in my eyes
