I miss the sound of your breath
I miss the feel of you against me
As we drifted off to sleep
I miss the way you would look at me
Like I was everything in the world
And I miss hearing your heart beat
In the sweet silence
I still can’t look at another woman
Without thinking of you
You’re always so near me
Yet I cannot touch you
You are only a dream
I want my tears to wash away
I want you in my arms
I want to be able to sleep again
I want heaven in my arms
The devil is lonely
He is stuck in Hell
He cries for his angel
And hopes she is well
I will still protect you
I will still give my life
Even if you are no longer mine
I will love you for all time.
Je t’aime toujours, mon ange.

This is actualy about two people. The devil represents me, because Grace said I was like a fallen angel, not fully evil, but not good enough to be an angel. Then, the angel represents my grace, my ex.
