To look at his face <br />Is to look at the sky <br />It fills me with wonder <br />And makes me want to fly. <br /> <br />I see the storms come and go <br />I see the sun rise and fall <br />I just wish he'd know <br />That I'd been there to watch it all. <br /> <br />I've been there to help <br />So secretly I almost didn't know <br />What I was doing <br />Or when I'd have to go. <br /> <br />But I had to leave well enough alone <br />And rip my heart away <br />For I knew I'd be in trouble <br />If I dared to stay. <br /> <br />I'd say something I only meant to think <br />And on that day <br />I'd have to face the consequences <br />Whether to leave or to stay.<br /><br />Kim Jones<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/sunset-fading-light/
