I Pray

I pray for the day someone's eyes will light up when he sees me 

Like his does when she walks into the room 

How lovely it would be the day when the mere sound of my name makes him smile 

And his eyes will glow like the brightest moon in the darkest skies 

I often wonder what length I'd have to go to

To attract his affection, his attention, what would it take to be his muse? 

I've learned from experience Prince Charming doesn't come out of thin air 

There are no fairy godmothers 

There are no potions, there's only me and luck 

And I'm realizing each day that being locked in a tower is not the way to win him 

Someday, I know, there will be a him 

Whose eyes light up like the stars when he sees me 

Whose face looks like an angel has kissed it when he speaks my name 

Who will whisper in pure astonishment "you amaze me" 

How wonderful that day will be 

Maybe it all starts with a smile 

So next time he smiles, I'll smile back

Rachel - I could feel the believing hope behind your words and understand. Always smile Rachel because you just never ever know who might be falling in love with it. How's that for a potion. It might just get you out of a tower. LOL. I liked your work. Namyh
