Angel

Searing darkness envelops, this voided hole called life.
Uncounted sorrows befallen, maimed by a ripping knife.

Razors embedding further, deeply carving flesh and skin.
Despair eats our essence, rotting minds of honest men.

Ubiquitous nightmares reign, shaking the core of our soul.
Merciful Lord sends an angel, filling hearts pitch as coal.

Cajoling us toward light, blissful end to blackened days.
Unfettering our freedom, erasing midnights dismal haze.

Blazing eyes exuding beauty, fine hair of silk and wine.
Redeeming mans worthless lives, damned by evil Divine.

Bountiful blessings bestowed, rescued from the beast.
Peace restored to a broken man, torture ever ceased.
