Broken Angel
I walk the long, dark
road...it's ripped and gashed surface showing the wear of age and
use....
I know not where it leads...
Where I'll go...
Whether
or not I'll leave my troubles behind me or if they will stalk me
silently on this dark and desolate way...
I know not what I
seek...
But "Seek and Ye Shall Find" they say....
So
I set out to seek my fate, come what may....
Long and long and
longer still I have traveled...
My future far off and hazy...
When
I am my most world weary....
Who should I happen upon but an
Angel...
Fallen...
Broken...
Lost...
I see my sad
resignation in her eyes...
I see the pain of the world I walk
there, too...
I wrap her in my comfort like a cloak...
I murmur
words to soothe her...
A healing balm for a broken soul...
Our
shared pain pallible in the frigid night air...
Two damaged souls
clinging to one another in the night...
Seeing our own pain in one
another,...
We see the path to each other's redemption...
We
hold to one another tight...
Raising each other from our own
private Hells...
At long last there is light in the darkness of
the night...
A hazy gray of dawn approaching...
A ray of light
to guide us back...
To light our way down a road not paved in
sorrow...
As we start down the shadowed, still, silent road...
We
wonder what fate will hold in the grey....
With my broken Angel by
my side to guide me...
And to I there to guide her...
We will
follow where the path leads us...
With hope raising in the new
dawn of day...
