Mystery before me
By Alex Hahn

I see an angel in the distance
Staring, I see its luminescence unparalleled
A glow that penetrates even the fiercest anger
Soothing and depriving at the same time
Calling out to it my voice trembled
Asking it to come
Never noticing my presence
Gliding towards me
Warmth engulfs my entire being
Timidly I ask for it
Now just a light before me
I muster up strength in its overwhelming presence
I ask it why I dream
The Angel moved through my being
Disappearing inside of me I cried
Asking it to leave
My naked body collapsed with the force
Crying out for it to come back
No angel came

Tara, I will certainly email a reply to the writer but I wanted to thank you for sharing this with us.  Intriguing piece...and quite reflective of my own experiences in a way.  I really enjoyed this work.

Yes, he is very intriguing. Alex is a former student of mine who is starting to share his writing.  He doesn't have internet access, so  I may be posting his work from time to time so he can get the valuable feedback available here at PiP.
