Once in a dark time
a secret was told.
The truth was hidden
even when the world went cold.
For the world had a savior
but she was just a young girl.
She didn't know it
but soon her wings would unfurl.
She was an angel,
and that was the truth
but no one would know it,
not while she was in her youth.
Ten years had passed,
now she was eighteen.
Her wings would unfurl
and the truth would be seen.
She soon saved the world
and was told to leave
but she wouldn't do that --
her love was naive.
She'd fallen for a man
and he'd fallen for her.
Her love was forbidden
but she stayed on Earth.
She was once immortal
but her wings have been taken.
But she didn't regret it --
she did not want a love forsaken.
