RED ANGEL

all alone in paradise
watching the flame
burn into embers
sadness filled the air
tears welled up in my eyes
i felt abandoned by all
in my own misery
i sat beating my chest
asking forgiveness
for my transgressions
when i heard her
a voice so beautiful
it lulled all my pain
i looked up
Red Angel hovered over me
a feeling of warmth
immersed throughout my being
as she sang me a sweet lullaby
i fell into a sleep of love
desire, happiness
a sleep making me know
life was worth living
when i awoke her lullaby
remained in my head
but my Red Angel had moved on
to offer solace to another soul in pain
