For my angel

Colours fade into grey and white,

As I sit down in this room,

Away from you,

Away from happiness.

The smile fades,

The darkness looms large,

Flitting memories cover my eyes,

And I lean back,

Lost in you.

And then I dream,

I dream of hills,

Of rivers sparkling clear,

Of colours blending with the sky above,

Of an angel,

Amidst the trees, beside the water,

The lips parted in a smile,

The brow luminous with the warmth of kindness,

The bosom, filled with the milk of love

The hands, long, tender,

The legs, slender and curved,

I see her,

Calling put to me,

Her hands, curved in an embrace of love,

I cross the river,

I trample on the grass,

I reach her,

I fall into her arms,

Into the sea of love,

I drown,

I perish,

Only to be alive, inside her,

Forever.

The dream ends,

The phone beeps,

The monitor flashes to life,

I see your picture,

I see my angel,

The hands long and tender,

The lips parted in a smile,

The brow luminous with the warmth of kindness,

The bosom filled with the milk of love,

Amidst the trees,

Beside the water…..
