On
a shooting star [my Russian valentine]
When I
turn over in bed and see the empty space next to me.
That’s
when I think of you.
When the
golden sun rises and lights the morning dew.
That’s
when I think of you.
When I see
children smiling and having fun.
That’s
when I think of you.
When the
night sky is dark and the moon hides from my wandering eyes.
That’s
when I think of you.
When the
snow falls and turns the world of colors into a greyscale land of wonder and
mystery.
That’s
when I think of you.
When darkness
arrives and it is still too early for the dawn,
And the
only light I can see is the stars in the skies.
That’s
when I think of you.
When Haley’s
comet roars across the stratosphere
Like true
love seeking two open hearts to bind together for eternity and a day.
That’s
when I think of you.
When the
wicked desires of the curse plaguing the institution of humanity arise to
power.
That’s
when I think of you.
When I
look into the mirror I see your smile.
When I
look into the sun I see your hair.
When I stare
into the endless blue skies I see your eyes.
When I see
the rain I see your tears.
When I see
a lowly dog searching for an owner
I see
myself trying to get closer to you.
To build
that bridge to cross your heart,
To find
the brick and mortar to rebuild my broken heart,
I feel
like I am in an arms race to grasp your hands,
The
concentric circles that revolve around the heart and soul that is my sun and my
moon,
You
sharpen my view, leaving me nigh a dull outlook on life,
The
unwritten book that could be our story,
I run to
protect you to cover your heart and soul from life’s harsh barrage,
The
blitzkrieg assault that the universe throws at us both.
I am your
shield and you my sword
And
together there is no force we cannot overcome.
I climb
the mountain just to shout to you below.
A man with
nothing left to lose and everything to gain,
I am a
noble knight on a quest to find his way.
You are
the stars in the sky granting me light.
Guiding me
even in the darkest of night.
All is one
and one is all,
And I will
catch you no matter the fall.
So sleep
with ease and awake with a smile
Knowing
that when you are my moon I am your sun.
While you
rest from your hard day
I watch
over you from a distance afar.
And when
you wake I will be there
To greet
you riding on a shooting star.
To the
sweetest of candy
A girl
who’s so dandy.
To a girl who’s
smart and always mine
I wish you
love and joy, my Russian valentine.
