A letter to Heaven

Dear Heaven,

Thank you for love,for the ray of light it brings to my nights.
For the songs it awakens in my heart every now and then.

I have heared from a very young age that love was impossible.
In fact,that for humans it was inconceivable.

I was afraid from my younger days that I would miss my way.
I was frightened at the many stories of heart-breaks.

Thank you heaven for drying my painful and abundant tears
for never leaving me in peace when my choice was mediocrity.

Those days I thought I knew better,that I was my own master
Fighting against the wind and hiding from the rain.

Thank you heaven for the angels I call family
For those I knew not yesterday,that I love today.
Indeed,strangers of today could be friends of tomorrow.

Thank you for the treasure whose name I bear.
In who's shoulders my head rest,in who's eyes I am secure.

Yours ever
An aspiring angel
