V shapped path.A Poem by Ruben DiasI’m walking alone, in the darkest of the nights And I’m not sure where I’m going. My feet feel heavy, my breath sounds tired. The terrain gets more and more difficult. But I’m walking. I won’t give up now…
I see a silhouette in the distance. It’s so far, yet so close. Seems like a figure of a woman. I can’t see her face, but her path is the same as mine.
She looked at me. And the sky, (I really don’t know why) Start shinning so bright.
I can’t and I can see her face. The figure of an Angel is never easy to see. My human eyes can’t handle such beauty. I fell in love. Stupid me.
I can see that we are walking in a parallel line. We won’t ever meet. It’s not meant to be. But we go to the same way. Maybe...
Along some miles, she seems that she’s getting closer. Is it only my imagination? It can’t be. I can see more details now. She is a girl, brunette, and her eyes are the color of green and brown. They remind me of Eden. The color and the temptation they bring to me. Her face is so delicate, so perfect. Only an Angel could be like this. We can see the fingerprints of God all over her. Her wings are perfectly brushed, with every feather in the right place. I wonder why she doesn’t fly away.
We continue our paths. And she seems closer and closer. We are now a few feet away. My feet don’t feel heavy no more, my breath doesn’t sound tired no more. Is it her, that makes me feel like this? So…light? All the terrain seems so easy now. It’s like walking on feathers. Everything is so bright.
She is near me. We are walking side by side. Her angelical body sets fire on mine. How can a human be so close to this perfect creature? I want to touch her. Give her my hand to hold. Kiss her. Hold her. But how can I? I’m only a simple human. I’m one of 6 billions. She is one. There is no one like her. How can I want her? Do I have the right to want her?
We are now so close, that our arms almost touch. I don’t know why I’m still alive. And then…
We touched.
And we stopped moving.
This was our destiny.
I realized that our path wasn’t parallel…It was a V shaped path. You and I, my angel…We were meant to be together since the beginning. But why? What have I done to deserve such miracle?
I fall in my knees in front of you, Overwhelmed with your perfection. You fall in yours. “You have wings too” " You say. And I noticed that’s true. You gave me wings. What have I done…To deserve this? I don’t know. I don’t see. I don’t care.
All I know is that you are here. With me.
I love you ACH. © 2011 Ruben DiasAuthor's Note
