Debris Of The Heart( A collection of Poems)

6. My Dark Angel

Every second I wake,
Feels a burden on the world.
So I cram my existence,
Just into a few words.
Sleep doesn't always come peacefully,
My dreams are mostly a gap to fill.
The lonely seeping through my toes,
While I lie awake wide, still.

But sometimes I feel a shadow
Lurking in the room, when I turn off the light.
He silently creep next beside me,
His touch, featherly light.
He holds me all night,
And whispers sweet words to me.
He says he will be there for me : always
That I am his for infinity.

I feel his fingers,
Through my auburn hair.
Caressing me like I'm made of glass,
But he won't let me break, he says he's the one who care
And he tells me how,
He is not very happy either.
That his only brightest hours are,
The ones he spends with me here.

Then he softly mumbles,
That he's not allowed to be with me.
But he can't live not seeing me,
Knowing my demons wish to be free.
And as he kisses me lightly,
When I snuggle closer.
I somehow know that my 'Dark Angel
Won't be with me more longer.

As the first rays of dawn,
Skim through the windows,
He unwinds our fingers, hesitatingly
And without a sound he goes.
When I finally open my eyes,
I wonder what took me so long,
To realise that the bestest of dreams,
Were never mine all along.

This poem is dedicated toJojo_B for her awesome book Bad Boys With Wings. This somewhat shows the relation of Vienna and Sariel.
Btw Sariel is not a dark Angel, though I thought of him while writing this poem.
Go read her book BBWW.
