I held the sunlight in my hand,
If we were to meet today
Tamyka Bell
A golden band upon my finger.
It lingers in forbidden places
And graces my palm with sweet designs.
The glowing lines entangled in flesh
To mesh with simple spirit and soul,
And make whole a beautiful heart
From parts in a mind so bright.
To play enlightened melodies,
The trees would shelter us from storms
And form a home, where we could be
So perfectly free. We two as one
Beneath the sun, upon the sand
To stand so tall and be so strong -
That song would be so sweet.
