Dark to Light

Ask not why my heart now roils in pain
Ask not why my soul cries out in agony
If could not tell you the reason
Yet it feels as though someone is slowly pushing a knife through my heart
My dreams are filled with my agony
And are given horribly twisted faces
My mind turns my horror into something real inside my head...
If cannot wake from this twisted nightmare
If scream into the dark wishing for freedom
If fall to my knees and close my eyes
If press my head to the cold floor
And pray for night to end
And morning to come
If pray for my angel's voice to break through the night
If pray for her wings of white to come beating down
Raining silvery-white feathers in a radiant display...

And now...
Out of the gloom...
As if summoned by my silent plea...
She now floats down to me
She kneels down beside me and clasps my chin in her hand
And raises my head to stare into her radiant eyes
And slowly this nightmare slides away
Slowly the horror recedes
And slowly if reach a hand out
If touch her cheek and she glides forward
And presses her lips to mine
And this once terrible nightmare
Becomes a paradise that...
If could spend an eternity in....
