(I wrote this for a song)1
A Spanish dove diving through the air
A gentle breeze, unseen and unaware
A star that shines a lone on the coldest night
A hand that reaches out and holds on tight2
I am a wingless bird
And
I am an encomium for you
And
My life is evanescent
A gossamer veil of wind
But
You are a rhapsody
Written in the mountain sides3
Don’t stray too far from me
For without you
My world will die.4
An unborn babe’s first life within the womb
A rose that lay across an empty tomb
A beatific song written on the waves
A treasure meant to love and meant to save5
I am a wingless bird
And
I am an encomium for you
And
My life is evanescent
A gossamer veil of wind
But
You are a rhapsody
Written in the mountain sides6
Don’t stray too far from me
For without you…7
I am so asinine
And
I am a reeling tempest
And
My heart is immovable
Yet
My heart is in your hands
Because
You are my sempiternal
You are a pyrrhic angel8
Don’t stray too far from me
For without you
My world will die9
A soul with no heart is gossamery
Me without you is horrifying
You are a flying dove, dancing the whole day through
I am a flightless bird waiting here for you

BRILLIANT
Wow, GREAT! I love the new use of words, can't really say I like anything in particular (I like it as a whole) nothing to say except ... wow!
Really heartfelt and wonderful.

it's ok if it's a poem I don't care but the wording is kinda weird in the chorus lines so look that over and make sure there is some good rhyming going on in there.
thanks for entering,
chey-bear
