Love

I lay in bed listening to music
although I should be asleep,
as continuous thoughts of you
cause emotions that run deep.

A smile appears on my face
as I see a vision of you,
but it isn't your beauty that caused it,
but the way that you give a love so true.

For if it wasn't for you
I'd probably still be wandering the streets,
Lost, with no direction,
as I search for someone to give my heart peace.

Instead, I'm in love with an angel
that was ordained by God for me,
who brightens my life with so many smiles
that even a blind man could see.

That the love that you give to me
on a more than everyday basis,
has taken my desert of a heart
and provided a never-ending oasis.

Where love pours out of your heart
like the waters of Niagara falls,
Quenching my insatiable desires
until it's your name that my heart calls.

And now, as I drift off to sleep,
my mouth happily whispers your name,
For it's you that gives happiness a new meaning
and the reason that I'll never view love the same.
