Eternal

Eternal 

Echo the words of an eternal angel 
And seeps into my minds eye 
The truth you seek is deep inside 
Tomorrow you wake with new born eyes 
She smiled as if to say goodbye. 

I dreamt that night of fearless men 
Who fought a war then died at end 
The bloodied cleaves of swords bludgeon all intend 
I walk away from the battlefield soulless and without a friend 
I could only see blood war cannot justify or eternal angel mend. 

Today I wake with new born eyes  
Eternal angel heaven sends.
