Angel*Rose

Alone
Doesn't exist
For us

Fallen from grace
But we'll be back
Wings fly us to our place
Can't keep us
Down

Shredded apart
Ruby petals,
plucked and dropped
Scoop me up
Let the Angel take me away

Safe from the
Fires
When you're with me
Don't be afraid
Have hope
Faith
In me
Your
Glass tears
Shatters into hard diamonds
Swirls of dark hair
Shadows

My own tears
Are locked away
And never by daylight seen
Let the gold wishes pass
Take my hand

Tarnished
and dented
But they can't take us down
We are the only
Fire
and Ice
Sun
and Moon
Co-existing

I see through
The feathered mask
White gleaming wings
Can't hide your face
Sparkling
In what can be tears
Or what could be
Love

But do you see it?
I enclose myself
Blood red petals
Curl tighter
Against the raining sky
For on the outside
I've placed a lie

Can you break its truth?
My truth?

I need an Angel

And she needs this Rose
