Black Angel

Journeying through steep, 
narrow valleys into which 
sunshine never reached, 
experiencing jagged breaks, 
abrupt upheavals, 
gradual changes, 
to become 
unrecognizable today; 
an outsider not part of the 
warp and weave of strangers 
moving in individual bubbles. 
Mesmerized by crystalline depths, 
daydreams infinitely gentle
reached out and kissed 
my withered hand. 
The hole in my heart 
is being filled by words 
from a black angel's 
writing quill.
