If I am an angel as you say
Then you must be the sea
Filled with intriguing mystery
Puzzling intelect
And beautiful, flourishing life
Your mind is a map of colors
Of passion and dreams
Your secrets are dangerous
And your tales are pure beauty

You came crashing through hell
And saved me
From the grips of oblivion
You found me
When I couldn’t find myself

Your passion is stronger than hurricanes
Stopping for nothing
And no one
It’s something dangerous,
Yet gorgeous
It’s comfortable,
Yet intimidating
It’s your soul
It’s your heart
And it’s something so pure
It should be forever cherished

To me,
Everyone fits in a box
It may be my naivety
But to me, everyone has a place
A label
A cage

No label fits you
No cage can hold you
You are something new
Something unique
Something undiscovered
So different, yet somehow so perfect
An unsolved puzzle

My cage is small,
Cramped,
It smells of failure and hatred
It’s lonely,
Thousands of faces swarm by my cage
But no one stops to help
Or even sends a glance my way
So i’ve stopped trying to shout
To scream for help

I am *****
I am broken
Yet somehow you see an angel
The angel who fell from the sky
The angel who failed
Who ran from their only hope
Who crushed their own dreams
But somehow
You saw glowing imperfections

Late in the dark of night
I walk towards the sky
Listening to the stories
Each night is peaceful
The low hum of the wind
And the sweet whispers of the stars
Thousands of paths
But they all lead to the sky
To my beautiful paradise

When I saw you
I saw harmonious darkness
Not the cold dark that sends chills down your spine
But the warm and safe embrace of home
Of late nights and shining stars
Empty roads and rustling leaves
Late walks down warm beach sand
Water shining from the light of the stars
And peaceful silence
You are home
