The Angel and The Cardinal

Inevitable and beautiful

The Angel and the Cardinal
 
On the wings of a higher dream,
I begin to see
Our world is not as it seemed
What has happened to me?
Have they left us free?
 
Before any words were said, a cardinal
Flies overhead to help me find her.
The angel, I’ve seen her so alive.
Now I wait for her to return
As my mind causes strife,
As blood begins to burn
For what was so yearned.
In my head, she was girl
Yet my soul wonders if
I had just witnessed a Seraph:
The Angel
 
On the wings of a higher dream,
I begin to see
Our world is not as it seemed
What has happened to me?
Have they left us free?
 
Remember that angel that meant so much?
Talking to her on a bus ride, going down
Halls, she passed by on the other side.
As friends walking streets in town,
I talked with the angel; and inside
Our two hearts we found
A comforting calm all around.
Within the look of her eyes,
Every feeling in the world
Took off like an incredible bird:
The Cardinal
 
On the wings of a higher dream,
I begin to see
Our world is not as it seemed
What has happened to me?
Have they left us free?
 
Both have wings, so neither will ever stay.
They always from move place to place,
To show us lost items from our pasts.
We search all the corners of space,
Moving along just a bit too fast.
For that joy can’t be replaced.
And it will be in every soul of every race.
The two flyers were always there.
Mysterious and extraordinary
As can be, freeing us from shadows, via multicolored dreams:
The Cardinal
The Angel
 
On the wings of a higher dream,
I begin to see
Our world is not as it seemed
What has happened to me?
Have they left us free?
 
Gone and found again,
Their infinite cycle thrives
The harbingers of changed lives:
The Angel and Cardinal
 
Finally, I see them on the same path as always, as if waiting for me.
