ORPHANED ANGEL

Orphaned angel – pain doesn’t lie
You were my siren for six months
You taught me patience with deception
And obedience to the night

Shadow lover, bring me twighlight
A surrogate and companion
You weaved a web that entangles
And a taste of oblivion

      ~ Orphaned angel, Pain doesn’t lie ~

I’ll let you go like the living leave the dead
And lay flowers on your grave
Your eulogy, in spite of me
Toss the dirt and walk away

Hiding from the cold wind
Huddled inside a stone stairwell
Risqué turns to risk
Oh how we know the risk so well
