Angelic Friend

A Poem by Mason Rayburn

Impromptu. Written for an acquaintance.

Could it be that there you stand?
Angelic features, open hands?
Do you bid me come unto thee?
Or would you rather to remain free?
Draw me nigh and hold me tight.
Do not ever forget this night.
Enchanting flicker of midnight glow
While we wait, a kiss I bestow.
Wait for the dawn if just for awhile
I'll be here, offering you a smile.
Tender-hearted, loving affection
Don't be fooled, it's not perfection.
While not perfect, our love is a treasure.
So let me be yours forever and ever.
