Shall I Descend For You.....

I saw you yesterday in the town, near the farmers market, I touched your moving hair
And although I knew you felt me, when you looked, I wasn't there
What is this feeling we share, it's as though I can break through the ceiling
Like an Angel descending, for a love she knows is waiting, when you looked
I wasn't there, I was lost in the essence of you, like a dreamer I instinctively knew
What craziness we both were hiding, the sultry whisperings we shared, we two
Like energy passing unseen or etherically through, the desire burning with passion
The consideration, the rules, the heavens, this was not a thing that we could ration
I'd be a fallen Angel, I know not what that might do to my heart, my feelings for you
Is the risk worth the great debate, or the love that seems bound by the truth
I could feel it yesterday morning, when I spied you at the market, I could feel you
When you moved, my heart beat along with yours, my movement was yours
Like the Gods had given true love a blessing, we skipped off to play some more
In my mind I can see you're an angel, we hold hands like new lovers do
Like the great confessions of old, "I will descend for you...."
Yes, I shall descend for you........
