Of the Dark Angel

As we walk 
beneath a bright moon
   Shadows greet 
us
    a dark angel 
    soon appears
  let the clouds 
roll by overhead
   we know our way now
   the dark angel 
leads us to 
our ancestral home
    Midnight
the wings of this angel
     reflect the moonlight
above our heads
stars form constellations
     we walk
beneath the ghosts of the gods
    the dark angel 
sends us his message
and the night is ours 
once more
