Warn me of the darkness
And show me how to fly
Tell me how to find the light
That's hidden in your eyes
Help me know that everything
Has meaning in this world
And that the evil closing in
Puts clear vision in a shroud
Show me how forever, love,
Can become more than a dream
And that eternal disattachment
Is just a worldly thing
Tell me now that you're not just
Another figment of my mind
Lead me where there's no more tears
And fly me to the sky
Author notes
This is about a fallen angel. Her true love comes down from Heaven to rescue her. This is kind of like her prayer that he really will save her instead of pull her farther down like everyone else has.

This reminds me of the poetry I used to write some time ago... Seems I've lost the ability to write poems that flow gently like this one.
Such a beautiful poem, also with an interesting theme... Wonderfully written, thanks for sharing this with me!
Keeo on writing!
