High above the clouds I soar
Demons jumping to ensnare me.
Their breaths like molten lava
Flicker over my icy skin.
My angel is nowhere to be seen
All alone I was left.
I run through the forests of the night
Creatures lunging at my heels.
Sharp teeth glistening in a cave of darkness
Snapping at me every so often.
I spot my angel ahead
Can’t reach him though.
I awake in my bed
My dog at my feet.
It is just midnight
Only two hours was I asleep.
At the end of my bed is my angel
In the embrace of one of my demons.
I scream and awake again
This time in my angel’s arms.
I sigh and close my eyes again
Gently stroking his cheek with my finger tips.
He stirs but doesn’t awake
Just holds me closer.
I can’t fall back asleep
So I lay there in his arms.
Thoughts race through my mind
Never stopping or slowing down.
I look at his face
And gently touch his lips with my own.
My sweet angel eludes me
In my dreams.
During the day he is just a man
That is my friend but not mine.
Now I shut my eyes
And dream that sweet dream again.
