narration continued..

the second or should i say the continuation?
but i was in the mood to write on especially after listening to so many inspiring yet sad music.

My Night Skies

the little boy prayed earnestly

that one day m would be like before

smiles on the face and the nearly hidden eyes

coming back to pay him a visit

however an angel dropped by one day

with hands as icy cool as that of m

he soothed the little boy's aching heart

and sang ever so gently

my silly little boy, o silly one

how can your heart be so unguarded?

and how are you to capture a shooting star

when it has not reached its destination?

the little boy knew the answer

m was never meant to be for him

m's smile, m's icy cool touch, m's tight yet careful embrace

they are all but polite gestures to welcome a stranger

small trinklets of pain started falling

fron the windows of his heart

what was empty before was filled with pain

like that of thorns to bare flesh

the little boy smiled with tears in eyes

as he bowed his head to pray

with utmost sincerity and honesty.

for hope that his father in heaven would listen

dear daddy in heaven,

thank you for the angel

thank you for m

thank you for my heart

thank you for the hills

thank you for the stars

thank you for the night

thank you for the time i have with m

daddy

protect m at all times

protect m's fragile heart

protect m's icy cool hands

protect m's warm embrace

protect m's charming smile

protect m's careful feelings

and daddy,

wherever m goes, i ask of you to be there

guard m's heart

do not let m be hurt

this i ask in daddy's name

amen.

the little boy now knows the answer

but still chose to keep m safe in his heart

love is never about leaving things be

its about taking chances even if it risks losing it.
