Fallen Angel

A lovely angel fell from the sky today,

her wings, it seemed, were slightly broken.

Still, she smiled in her ever so angelic way,

even more as her beautiful words were spoken.

"My smile belies the truth inside,

I'm just an angel who's fallen from grace.

I've nothing more left, not even my pride,

All you see is my once beautiful face,"

"How can this be true?" I then replied,

When such beauty makes my heart rejoice?

Your purity and divinity cannot be denied,

regale me just once with your enchanting voice,

let it fill me up completely and then all around,

'tis not the beauty of which I seek from you,

The fullness of your heart makes mine resound.

This is your gift, it's what you were born to do."

The angel paused and thought, then she sighed,

as the warmth of her breast enveloped my soul,

I felt a love only she could provide,

giving me that which made me whole.

"You've shown me so much upon this very day,

the depth of your heart is greater than you know.

I thank you, kind sir, for you've shown me the way,

restoring my grace so my beautiful wings may grow."
