Let me Be Your Shooting Star

Let me be the one who never leaves, 

Exciting enough to tease,

Allowing you to live your truth,

Not stifling you or your pen.

Let me be your secret love,

Fit around me like a velvet glove,

Hold my hand through the Storm,

As we march forward into promised lands,

The crowds and gossips need not know,

Our music plays in both our world's,

Embracing forgiven and forgiving both,

I want to kiss you upon your head,

and watch over you with a mother's love,

I want to be your sister too, guiding you in all you do, 

I want to be your friend so true never again lying to you, 

I want to be the lover who, 

You can lay with until each dawn.

You will lie upon my breasts. 

As I stroke your head with each final caress. 

Yet you will return each time. 

To find that we both write with wine. 

Into the forest we must go. 

To ease our wounds and write folklore. 

We've both been here many times before. 

Lovers past matter not. 

They didn't leave the same mark. 

They didn't light the dark. 

Come with me to the mountains too. 

The road is long but we will make it through. 

Let not our words be harsh this time. 

Softly softly we must tread. 

Passionate though we may be. 

Careful with each others heart.

Let's explore each land we visit 

Magic both around us glimmers. 

Angel wings will keep us safe. 

Eyes beautiful match each others. 

I'm not here to take your money 

Or tell you lies sweet as honey. 

To trap you with a swollen belly.

I want to enhance your world.

You're in my dreams.

In my blood. 

Until then my love stay safe so safe. 

I've been waiting for you to call my name. 

The others were all a game, 

Somewhere to rest briefly out of the rain. 

None of them made my soul sing.

None of them heard my heart beat.

None of them taught me to look for the sun.

I would be oh so true. 

Never looking at a man apart from you. 

Hold my hand and sit under this tree, 

Forever in my arms you must be. 

Loved and lover 

Entwined forever,

Let me be, 

Let me be, 

Let me be your shooting star. 

Xxxxx

So beautiful, haunting my mine, as it should. The poem is like a beating heart ? alive and compulsive, a calling from the virtual to the real. To dance in the shadows of the city. X
