Follow Me Into The Dark

by Anna   Jul 12, 2009


Don't be afraid
For though we are alone here
I'm forever by your side
I do apologize dear
By no means did I intend to drag you here
The darkness is no place for an angel
No place at all
You deserve to be in the light

In your efforts to save me
Save a heartless shadow like me
You have fallen into this dark abyss
An angel I hold in my arms
Wings broken and torn
Tears I cry for you
These tears I have never cried before
Blood lays all around me
Even in the darkness I can see it
See your agony

Holding your hand tightly
I lead you through my world
Though you see nothing
I can hear your heart pounding
The darkness is taking it's toll
Picking up the pace
You tend to fall behind
Even if you trip and fall
I'll catch you every time

Coming to the end of this tunnel
I stop dead in my tracks
This is far as I go
But you don't let go of my hand
Looking at you confused
You give me that smile of yours
And even with all my effort
I smile right back
Knowing you aren't leaving
It makes my heart skip a beat
Wait...
I thought I didn't have a heart...
You gave my half of yours

Incomplete without you
I hold your hand so tight
Stroking my cheek softly
You lead me toward the light
My skin doesn't burn
I don't burst into a flame
Now I have wings on my back
An angel I am again
Wings are healed
A smile on your face
Letting go of my hand
We soar through the sky
In this moment you have set me free
Free from the cage of death
