KALEIDOSCOPE the glow of your love.... a candle to lead me out of my darkness. the radiance of your smile a key to release me from the cell i locked myself in the sound of your voice the music to accompany the lyrics my soul has composed gazing at the future a kaleidoscope of images blazing with color my past fades to black and white drowning in a sea of cliche searching for metaphoric liferafts in this ocean where you and i drift ever deeper into each other i can't find the right romantic lines to adequately express the way i feel i search for the words to bridge this ocean and am frustrated when "i love you" falls far short of the opposite coast these words, these feelings have been conveyed before and were suitable but the feelings, the strength, the power, the confidence, can no longer be symbolized by these three words if thunderclouds could feel, i imagine the power they would know shattering the nightime silence with a deafening roar, lighting up the darkness. if the winter sky knew emotion, i would know the peace, the beauty of the snow as it gently makes it's way to the ground brightening everything it touches listening to the wind whisper through the trees, i wish that it could speak and tell me what i already know how wonderful it is to be so certain of the direction it was going i feel all of these things and wish there were some way i could sum it up in a few words to let you know.... until i do, it will have to suffice to know that i do feel this and that i love you so very much.
