The Wings That Seized My Love
Written By: Julie Gurel
Ó 2007

Why do things hold so still, when my love is gone?
I know that when I wake each day, that they must go on!

At first I try not to look up, I'm tired of what I see.
The sky reaches out forevermore, keeping him so far from me.

I try not to hear the awful sound, of that engine's roar above.
As it holds him in its arms….those wings that seized my love.

The days grow long when I'm all alone, I decide I must not cry!
I wipe the tears and stop the sobs, and start with my new life.

I mess up the bed and spread my limbs, as if to own both sides!
I reclaim the remote and watch my soaps, this time I win the fight.

I ignore the stove that I've slaved over, and befriend the microwave.
I dig deep down in the cookie jar, and for him none will I save.

I finish all the chores that take me hours when he's here.
It took me only 20 minutes? The record of the year!

Then I hear the doorknob turn and I run to claim my place.
On top of the bed (his side might I add) so he might realize his fate!

I hid the remote deep in the couch, in hopes he will think it's lost.
I've gotten used to this life of mine, after he took off!

How daring is he to show his face? This man I chose to forget.
Now he comes back to claim his place! I see the microwave he has not met!!

He starts his way into the room, and I have on my evil stare.
His smile and words they melt my heart when he says "I'm home my dear"

My evil stare turns into joy, as I leap into his arms!!
I get to fall in love again as he picks me up and just holds on!

His kiss it lands upon my lips, as if it was the first time.
Those wings they could not keep him!! This wonderful pilot of mine!


I remember why I love his job. It's the chance at something more!
The chance to fall in love not once, but a million times over!
