A Night Alone

A night alone ,
Time to steal,
Hold her tightly ,
Make her real,

At one with an angel ,
Shadows thrust,
To sleep forever ,
This moment I trust,

I wake to sunlight,
My angel, she has gone,
Heart now lonely,
Beats as one, 

Coveted in thought, 
Minds purest sin, 
Another night alone,
Will let my angel in,

But why must this continue,
Love only in my dreams,
I've searched inside reality 
No angel there......it seems

This was a very sad and beautiful piece. I really love it because I know what that feels like, and it's not fun. Good imagery and work.(:
