Looking and Wondering...



Looking at the stars
Wondering how far away they really are.
Looking at the moon
Wondering how the light touches my soul.
Looking at the sun
Wondering how the touch warms my life.
Looking at the sky
Wondering how it gives us life.
Looking at the clouds
Wondering why they pass us all by.
Looking at your eyes
Wondering what lies deep beneath.
Looking into your soul
Wondering if your the one I love.
Looking at your beauty
Wondering if I can touch you.
Looking at your life
Wondering if it can be happy.
Looking at your heart
Wondering if you will be mine.
