The Angel's Wound

5/25

You were my only undying light,

You would not fail me, when cast the night,

I was the mastermind, I will never endow,
The undoing of a method I have allowed.

I'm somewhere beneath the back of your mind,

In a place, if searched for, you will find,

Caught from the above, and forced to love
For a slice of mortal time,

In a wold of infectious grime
They have seven million explanations
For why I cannot cannot exist
But all that is noise
I am real
I am this 

I lost my head in a world of joys

Faces looked brighter on girls and boys

I needed you not, this is my regret

I need you now more than I can get

Then, through the veil of your eyes,

A thousand winters opened,

Then closed with a single, delicate motion

A strange thing, I thought,

Like a strike of fascination.

You were my life 
and my salvation.
I feared you.
