If I were a bird I couldn’t fly as high as I did yesterday
Walking
Next to you
I’ve walked with you before
Holding your hand
Watching your smile
I walked besides volumes of books
Next to priceless pieces of art
Holding your hand
Your smile the only thing capturing my eye
I imagine often what it’s like to love an angel
To fall under her wings
Knowing her love protects me
Protecting me from myself
Standing under the aqueduct alone
Pondering my life
Giving up
You descend gracefully
Consuming my body as a wound
and your body the bandage that heals it
Now
Soaking back into reality I’m captured by your beauty
Our background stained with the wet city
Our landscape of adventure
Walking with you again
You take my hand and lead me through the rain
Past shadows of every soul I have ever met
Into a life and love
I had only ever dreamed
Because in your arms
In your smile
Kissing your lips
I have finally found
Heaven on earth
