Where do my Angel stay?

 

A lonely spark appears before me tonight,
amid the storm that rages deep inside.
Should I surrender? Should I breathe again
or let the silence pull me in?

How much more can this soul endure
before it breaks, no longer pure?
Shards of pain cut through my skin,
reminding me I still exist
though barely breathing, barely within.

The moon ignites my shadowed way,
through endless darkness, where we fade.
I’ve crossed the archway, pale and gray
to the quiet realm where my angel stay.

A tender warmth upon my face,
wings aglow in holy grace.
They’ve come to guide me home again,
through whispering winds my voice forever lingering.

Will I escape and find release,
unbound at last, in perfect peace?
For love, eternal, never fades
it only shifts through brighter shades.

For in the dark where I begin to fade,
your heart’s small flame keeps me awake.
The angel that leads me through the gray
to where your light, and mine, still stay.
