Except My Love

I am a fallen angle,
Tossed into a world
Between hell and heaven
Seeking redemption.

I once would soar high
In the sky never caring
Always seeking adventure.

Then I met him.
He showed me new
And wondrous things
I never thought possible.

Things that were
Exciting and frightening
At the same time.

I was young and unafraid,
Then on my final midnight
I was struck down
To the depths of hell.

I still would be there
if he didn't save me.

But now he suffers
And I know not
What to do,
He is my love
And I suffer with him
In this dark and gloomy world
Of endless torture.

I sit by his side
And I try to heal
His wounds and pain.

But I no longer have
The power I once had
And am helplessly losing a battle
Against an unknown foe.

A foe who took him
in the night while he slept,
He suffers and I know
Not what to do.
This foe is not a disease,
Or any living thing,
But a part of him he can't destroy,
And I have no powers to give
To him.

Except my love.
