Midnight Angel

I awoke late in the night I turned to put my arm around my wife I noticed the silver-blue moonlight dance across her face It showed off all her features, her beauty and her grace I rubbed my eyes and looked twice to see What I thought was a halo on the pillow between her and me The sheets looked like the wings of an angel holding her so tight And she put her head into my chest and pulled me into her light I felt my demons leave and my soul set free By the light of an angel next to me I felt the warmth of her body and could feel her breathe A real life angel sent to deliver me She opens her eyes and says “everything’s alright”? I kiss her on the forehead and say “back to sleep baby, its mid-night” She puts her head to my chest and drifts back to sleep Into my heart her love flows deep My fingers running through her hair My heart knows no despair And the moon moves on behind the clouds I can sleep peacefully now
