Fallen Angel

In my innocence I fell under a spell

love casting shadows of uncertainty

for in my body your spirit does dwell

locked in my heart for all eternity

On the wings of night, I silently cried

willingly falling from heaven's grace

minor injuries, suffering wounded pride

longing to be wrapped in your embrace

Torn wing falling to earth's harshness

searching dark pools, reflective eyes

flickers of hope, flashes of brightness

visions of inner peace, my spirit rises

Distance bell rings, spreading my wings

in my heart loves grows, I begin to sing
