There once was an angel
Who lived in the sky
You may know this angel
Yes she fell in love with one who could die
This tale, only I can tell
The story of my angel and I

I was mortal and she immortal
A celestial and one who could die
But our love transcended life and death--
My angel and I
Love in its purest and truest form
An angel and one who could die

But there was a decree in heaven
Yes, the kingdom in the sky
This commandment would seek to threaten
The love of my angel and I
It was thus written:
None born of Earth could love a child of the sky

The Earth and the Heavens became jealous
Of my angel and I
And for this reason they took a petition
To the ruler in the sky
That he may judge the angel
And her lover who could die

And on that day of judgement
I was given wings to fly
Love doth maketh things happen
I was with my angel in the sky
Together we faced all of the heavens together
Hand in hand
My angel and I

She made a choice
She would lose her place in the sky
Immortality for mortality
To love and be loved
By one who could die
And thus was formed the greatest love story ever known
That of my angel and I
The first piece of classic poetry I read here was that of Edgar Allan Poe, Annabel Lee. I fell in love with it and every time I'm here I always read it again. It sort of inspired me to create this.

This place
Is rampant with
People who choose jealousy over love
People who takes their anger out
To those who are in a less advantageous situation
People who would hurt their loved ones
At the sound of their ego crashing

What do we do?

I’m sorry to bother you..
Promise you don’t mind?

I just want your pixie dust please,
oh no.. I won’t take too much.

just enough to fly,

feel high,

and be beautiful too!

being an earth fairy is unfair compared too a glowing gazelle like you...

You know you've fallen for a narcissist
when you **** in the mirror
and he's looking at himself
Childish jealousy
Doesn’t at all look well on me

I don't want to let you down
and I hate it.
And now I am angry at you
for giving something I gave you.

A bit of jealousy came over me
when you two were together.
Now I feel left out and yell,
"Thanks for ignoring me!"

Then I miss the other part of me,
and I just want you by my side.
I shut myself out
and dare say anything,
for I am trying to tell you
how I feel without words.

Does that make any sense?
I'm not so sure,
but all I know is I got to
open myself up to you,
and then I'll be "OK."

If you love me.
If you really love me.
Why is it that you look at the other stars, with such enthralling lust in your eyes?

The sun burns brighter today.
I think another poem for the moon is completed.
