My Angel Born of Mist

By mishi

 

My angel born of mist

She dreams of scarlet nights

With broken hart, a wish

A new, come morning’s light

Nightmares pass to nothing

She lies broken from the day

This passion’s kiss, a blessing

Our hope of clearer ways

With bloody hands, she trembled

Her everything torn away

With in my arms there’s peace now

I pray, she’s hopes to stay

To give her life to share forever

I’d wash away that past

To replace it with our future

A love that’s meant to last

 

My angel born of mist

For always here, please stay

I’ll mend your heart, I promise

For your caresses washed away

All the dirt I clung to

And all my foolish ways

For you, my body yearns for

Your fire fills this place

For all it’s worth, my angel

Your graces save this man

From circles of nameless faces

And the lust of dirty hands

So trust in me, dear always

My sweet and precious wife

Not then, not now, but always

I’ll protect your sleepless nights
