[bodytext] => While sitting on a solitary cloud I once did peak from heavens gate To this figment world below And did seal a fiendish fate I knew not the feel of pain The sting of a broken heart How bones could ever break But that was just the start A demon did charm me He filled me with lies I sank in his venom His evil demise Held prisoner to this madness I lost hope and way Blinded to redemption My lifeline started to fray I dropped from innocence Down to this gloomy world When corruption did steal me And left my morals twirled Chastised for my emotions Left naked and shamed I cursed the one who could save me I left his identity to me unnamed For years I did wander Alone and tormented Fear and anger fumed me Needing to be vented I felt my skin turn pale My insides rot away Feathers fell from my wings Halo lacked its golden ray Eyes to sunk in to see No sensation to feel a caress I never inquired on how you came But you were there for me none-the-less You watched from above My guardian on high Feeling my pain with me Shedding the same tears we cry Never averting your gaze Waiting till the time was right You came for me with arms wide open Stealing me into the night You cleansed my seeping wounds Mended every broken bone Caressed my fragile body Singing to me in your heavenly tone For weeks I was in a coma Not realizing how you cared for me But loyal and true you stayed Praying that I might wake up and see Your prayers were answered For I slowly opened my eyes Blinked the sleep away And squinted at the bright skies For the first time I felt the sun How its rays can warm the inside Filling me with life and beauty Keeping my recuperation on its mind Over time the wounds did heal But the scars will never fade away But those agonizing memories will And the ones we will make shall stay You shared your secrets with me Helped build back my esteem With your eyes so deep and comforting Their brown pools of ebony cream You helped strengthen my body And helped soothe my mind My soul was a different story Stubborn and not easy to find But you never gave up hope And we grew closer every day Till I understood why life Challenges us in every way Down on my knees I asked For God to forgive my flee To cleanse my soul again And fill the void with glee I thank you to this day For returning me to my wings For the sky is far much riveting With your voice echoing while it sings Without you I’d be lost Condemned to a fate of death But now I will live With you providing sweet breath Everything happens for a reason No one is to blame I love you like nothing else And our love is my hearts eternal flame [comments] => 2 [counter] => 175 [topic] => 24 [informant] => whatsername [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LoveRemembered )
