Reality of Fantasies

Written by: Sir Kiyotan McCloud, Archangel of Niuri
Date: Monday, May 17th, 2004
Addressed to: lady Shiari Yaslana-McCloud, Wind on Fire



The personification of elegance
Grace, beauty, wit, and style
Tame eternity with a wink
Guard tonight with a smile
The epitome of desire
A living dream come true
A reality of fantasies
A magical sight to view
Your gaze leaves me breathless
Your whispers find me faint
The rivers of my longing for you
Flow far beyond restraint
A cascading mane of treasured gold
Frames twin pools of a sparkling hue
Cherried crescents, and cheeks of rose-satin
Elements of a priceless you

Never in my life has there been
Of something I'm so sure:
You never fail to impress me
You always leave me wanting more
I've been told that love is blind
In truth, I fail to see
And should love mean imprisonment
Then I've no desire to be free
Your touch causes light-headedness
Your kiss would leave me dazed
Your laughter makes my knees go weak
Your existence keeps me sustained
A thief by unintention
An occupation since the start
When you kept my attention, stole my devotion
And when you captured my heart

Penned by my hand on the 13th of Ios, in the year 129 MA.
