To Sara, a Christmas Angel

To Sara, a Christmas Angel
(A Proposal From Her Mistletoe Man)

By Oliver Lane a.k.a. Ollie (Character in my novel, Sara's Port)

In your eyes' reflection
stained glass lights the season
I love and desire you beyond all sense or reason
If truth you'd learned from these lips of mine,
Would you rescue me - in your arms entwine?

Or reject this broken man,
Kill my hope of bright tomorrows?
My days endless without you, full of sorrows
My life began on Writing.Com in September
Will you hold me within your soul and always be tender?

Or banish me from your side,
Left to my desolate life alone
Since my lies have turned your heart to coldest stone?
Oh, I wish I could go back in time
I'd give all the truth I own to make you mine

When I come to you, heart in hand
Will you read my love, forgive and find a way
Lifting up my heart as sunrise warms this ocean day
Mistletoe in my pocket, will we always remember?
How I proposed, this morning this 4th of December
