"Life is difficult!"
I cry out tonight,
So an angel from heaven
Is sent to be by my side.
He swoops down on mighty wings
Amidst tumultuous skies.
Black forces, pent up and waiting,
Strike him down as he flies.
In my dream, I see him.
I open up my eyes.
An angel stands there bleeding,
Injured and dying.
"Yes, life is difficult,"
The angel lets me know.
"You are stronger than me:
You have a human soul."
"You can repair my wounds;
You can restore my life;
You can keep me safe
Until I'm well and right."
The way to keep an angel safe
Is to close your eyes and dream,
So I lay back to sleep
While he rests right next to me.
In my dream, I watch over him
Rather than him watching over me.
I touch his hand and feel his pain.
I see visions of him as a man.
"You are in love with this man.
He's a reflection of my light.
Someday, you'll be together,
But not in this lifetime."
As I heal the angel,
I awake too soon,
Afraid of losing myself.
My angel disappears.
This life is difficult:
Everyone you love will go.
We all have human angels.
Enjoy the time bestowed.
