“IN LOVE WITH AN ANGEL”

My tortured soul cries for you in the darkness,
and my eyes search in the stillness, with fright.
My inner being is so greatly tormented,
as I start to see the faintness of the light.

The glow becomes so much brighter,
as I became more, and more aware.
Then I saw you at the end of the tunnel,
and my thoughts were only to beware!

Your hair was almost sun kissed blonde,
with the deepest blue eyes I ever saw.
And dressed in a soft lily white gown,
my spellbound mind was totally in awe.

An aurora spread about you,
and a halo graced you, over your head.
When I looked at you there was a smile,
I started wondering, if I was alive or dead!

And then suddenly I did realize,
that this was an angel, and was all mine.
Lord, she was so strikingly pretty,
and she looked to me, as so very divine.

I asked myself a question,
“what would happen if I went with her?”
Would I then be totally free,
of all trials and tribulations, which haunt me?

And then I made an unexpected decision,
as I turned, searched out, and took her hand.
I turned around, and placed my back to the past,
and I walked off with her, into another land.

That night, “I Fell In Love With An Angel,”
when I turned and went away with her.
To another place that I knew was beyond,
going gladly, but knowing not what I might incur.

Hello Bill......

This is so haunting and beautiful, and I hope it has a happy ending. It's always best to follow our dreams, even if we know not where they might lead!!!
Beautiful writing!!

Today is a gift....
That is why they call it
'the Present'!

Good evening Sunny,
Thanks for dropping by once again. And for your so kind comments. Haunting it is, and perhaps a happy ending.

Hello James,
Thank you for coming by, and for your comments. And perhaps, the special one with wings will forever more by yours, and stay by your side.

Good evening Marsha,
A'hh, you have given me such gracious comments and I thank you. And I am very glad that you came by and enjoyed this writing of mine.

What a beautiful poem. The words are so soft and yes, haunting.

"And then I made an unexpected decision,
as I turned, searched out, and took her hand.
I turned around, and placed my back to the past, and I walked off with her, into another land."

You weave such magic in your words.

Hello sir - I do believe this is the first piece of yours I've been honored to read thus far! The title caught my eye, as I myself wrote something very very similar to this just a couple of days ago. "My dreaming death.." I do think you might enjoy reading my tale too! Sounds like we've had similar encounters with beauty - this is fabulously haunting, and I liked how you left the ending "open" for the reader's mind to wonder....? Almost like there could be a part 2. LOL Exquisite work sir, so glad I caught it, and I'll definately look forward to reading more from you! Bravo!

Good morning poetFemmeFatale,
First I would like to thank you for coming by for a visit for the first time. And to thank you for your most gracious words commenting about my writing.

Yes, I read this poem many times and the more I do, the more haunting it becomes to me. Perhaps a part two there will be.

I would love to read your poem, "My dreaming death" and will look for it.

Thank you once again for your kindness.

Very well written, I loved it.
Signs surround us, but you will only see them if you learn open your heart and become more aware.
I too have angel; she is going off to school.
It will be mystery of what becomes of our future?
I like your writting style; it's similar to mine, but your a little more advanced than I.
I've only been writting poems for a few months.
Anyway; very nice work.

Sometimes we do need to take that step into the unknown - After all - We know what's behind us, and what surrounds us - The mystique of that which lies beyond can surely be enrapturing, can't it??... Nicely done, Bill...
