Golden and Silver

That dent upon your brow

And frown upon your lips

That nervous twitch of your fingers

And the habit of angry pacing

I wish it were of use.

That genuine smile of purity

Those eyes when wide with intensity

The glisten of your tears

And your everlasting hope

I wish it weren't in vain.

Your random endless talents

That silver tongue, the play of words

Your mind so quick, and thoughts so clear

That golden pen, and the wand of vision

I wish... You knew to use them.

Not for you, not for them. 

Just for Him, and then for all.

~Moniba.

You have a lyrical descriptive phrasing that I think has the makings of very ornamental and beautiful verse. This title choice was amazing!
