Angel Of Silence

One day an angel came to me
and I was taken by his beauty
words like soothing water
and dreams of a future bright
poured from his lips
like silver leaves
falling from a tree
to escape the dreary nights
of fall and winter
caressing my face
and my body
with their warmth
and their sweet promise.
My angel of the future
My angel Of life

So to come with him
I cast aside my life
without a sense of doubt
hurting everyone around me
for what I know was right.
selfish were my motifs
still I cried for those
I was to leave behind
the rush of his love
the look in his eyes
My angel of beauty
My angel of faith

Then came the day
our future in our grasp
when he turned away
from everything
we planned
left me to the unknown
and his final words
poured from his lips
like silver leaves
falling from a tree
like razorblades
to escape the dreary nights
of explanation and truth
cutting up my face
and my body
with their coldness
and their bitter promise
My angel of tears
My angel of silence
