My Dark Angel

From darkness to light, how one person made a big difference in my life.

Written 9/3/2016

My spirit was broken, wanting to die,

My heart's wings no longer able to fly.

My life seemed so hopeless, cursed by fate,

Pending gloom perched outside my the gate.

The days seemed dreary as a winter storm,

Bleak and colorless, without form.

The cowering sun was but a dour feast,

Unto the darkness, a lurking demented beast.

My life was a shamble, the perfect mess,

Stumbling about in a fog of distress.

Thoughts as bitter as a witches sick brew,

With moments of happiness all too few.

The rains of sorrow poured down

Drowning this stark bitter ground.

Forlorn and forsaken was how felt I,

Broken and cast out along the wayside.

Then I looked up and there you were so proud,

My dark angel riding in on a cloud.

Stepping down to brush aside my deep hurt,

Your hand offered to rise me from the dirt.

Our eyes met in that breathless moment of space,

As I gazed at that wickedly handsome face.

A bit of sinful pleasure was promised there,

But also something much deeper to share.

Love and compassion you freely gave,

To lure my heart from it's dismal cave.

You gave me hope and a reason to care,

You offered your life with me to share.

You took me in your arms, sound and warm,

And promised to keep me safe from harm.

You allowed the sun to once again shine,

Into this woeful world I had called mine.

All my faults and flaws you did accept,

Assuring me I'm worth being kept.

I feel not worthy of such a precious gift,

But this opportunity I would not shift.

With humbleness of spirit and heart,

I know this is where it all will start.

One day at a time we journey forth

Making our own destiny henceforth

Thank you M'Lord for this you give,

This moment to let go and live.

Thank you for the days to come yet,

My love for you now deeply set.
