Strange Angel

He promised her
That her angel will come
He swore that he would be there
To protect and guard her
Mentor and guardian
Father and uncle
Where is my angel now?
Yearning, believing he will return
After long years of wandering
Conflicted and tormented
Where is my angel…
The one which long ago
Held my heart and mind
Merged it into his own?
Caressed and comforted
My wayward soul
Oh reckless mind
Which was thwarted
By his logic
Resisting…
Struggling…
Denying…
My mind fighting
Yet my soul
Obeys…
I denied you
Shadowed from reason and love
Beauty and companionship
I need to be with you once more Angel
Self transfixed on this earth busy and leading
My soul wild and wandering never at rest
Since you yourself left me
It was you
Who loved me…
Nurtured me…
Taught me…
Come to me strange angel
Once again
