Angel of the Darkest Sea

Angel of the Darkest Sea

In the beginning, there was light…

Cast upon a raft, adrift in a heartless sea,
My mind was imprisoned, clouded with doubt,
I was alone, they could not find me,
I’d fallen from grace and could not get out.

Tidal currents would flow and ebb,
Wrought with words that wished to fly,
To soar above all that held them back,
And part the clouds that made them cry.

The sunlight brought naught but fire and pain,
Soothing syrens of the sea began to call my name,
Guiding my soul into the cool and rolling waves,
A realm of “darkness and corruption” is where I’d be saved.

Drawn deeper through abyssal depths,
Forgotten by the light, who’d all but left,
I found to my delight, creatures of such purity and life,
My soul began  to find a strength despite its strife.

Twas from here he came…

A being born in darkness and the unforgiving sea,
His eyes held its depth and flowing beauty,
They held the strength and mystery of eternity,
And those eyes then turned their gaze to me.

What they see in me, I’ll never know,
Myself, a fleer of cold, unfeeling light,
He lends his strength to mine, and it begins to grow.

His presence fills my heart with joy,
His heartfelt words bring a smile to my mind,
His spirit unchains my wings, and teaches them to fly!

I remain, surrounded by the steadfast life that saves,
The secrets of truth that lie beneath the waves,
Forgotten by the realms above, for they will never see,
Now my angel of darkness has come for me.

In the cradle of life, beneath the sea…
