I Long To Have You, My Angel

I heard an angel speak last night and he said write
write and dream of the love you seek
the dark hair, dark eyes
and pale white skin so sleek
 
a perfect face forever etched
in a cold, hard stone
forever in a oblivious stance
watching over them alone
 
I imagine your wings wrapped tight
a shelter from the winds of change for me
whispers throughout the ages
a silent prayer to set us free
