AN ANGEL IN MY ARMS

The soft laps of the waves upon love’s shore

Caress the demon that causes the cancerous darkness within

As I listen to her soft breathing

As I lay with her in the star-lit room

As I watch her dreams come flowing out from her thoughts

As she dreams of the future

Things that may be

Or may never be

As I hold this sleeping angel in my scarred heart

In my scarred arms

For some reason this angel chose me to hold her

Or is it she that is holding me, really

Perhaps that’s why I feel so whole again

Perhaps that’s why all of my pains have escaped my mind

Just by watching this marvel of all the universe

Sleep within my arms.
