Longing I yearn for the day to dawn How long must this carry on? I long for warmth of the flame But the results are always the same Years have I waited, my patience wears thin Somedays I wonder, will I ever win? I'm always told my time will come Until it does, my heart will thrum

Angel Eyes She has enticing waves of hair Leaving those in her path stunned Nothing could really compare! She has a smile that drives the boys wild But it's more than that I am completely beguiled She has angel eyes of beautiful blue Oh how they sparkle Their meaning I can construe!

A Quick Personal Update Hello everyone! First, I'd like to start off by saying thank you all so much for liking my #poems and stories, for following me, and for all the kind words! It's helped to inspire me even more to seek a career in literature. I fell in love with English my tenth grade year, which I give an amazing teacher credit for. Hopefully all of us who want a career in literature will succeed. As I've said before, everyone here is very talented, you all have your own unique style that no one else has. Never stop typing/writing stories and #poems. I love reading all of your content more than I like making my own. Now, since the summer has arrived (at least where I live) I'm not going to be as active on Opuss as I have been. I'm going to start looking for a job, and I'm going to try to get a few things in my #life more orderly. Again, thank you all so much! Never give up!
