On god's wings I soar

I'm your guardian angel

Their grim reaper

They fight for

Your possessions

Asking God for

Your demise

Fill you with lies

I fight for

Your life

Asking God for

You to be spared

For me you've cared

With my scythe

I will take their life

Covered in blood

White wings

Tinged with red

Demons to be fed

With their taint

Your heart is faint

I'll heal it

With my loving light

You will live to fight

Another day

This is not the end

The evil I will fend

At your heels

Like starving hounds

Hoping you'll die

So they can get by

I won't allow it

I have the power of god

And through me

You shall live

And be free

Chapter 1

Part 1:

Alone in her room she sat

In her red velvet chair

Long blonde hair

Cascading down her shoulders

She didn't know how long

The enemy would hold her

Here in this pretend room

Of luxury

The carpet was gold

Glimmering in the light

The war at its height

It reminded her

Of the armor

The soldiers wore

Would they come for her?

She didn't know

The fire aglow

Lit up her pale face

Once adorned in paint

She now looked faint

She sighed

Brushing her hair

This routine to keep her sane

Was brittle from pain

A knock at the door

The chair knocked over

Out of her fright

She had jumped up

Ready to fight

Hair brush in hand

She had nothing more

She dared not hide

Show no weakness

She beckoned them enter

And instead of a server

It was a soldier

Adorned in his flashy armor

Cocky and young

She held her hairbrush close

Unsure why he chose

To bother her at this hour

He came into the room

Never shut the door

He said he had news

And she feared uncertain doom

My brain is turning over

Just like an engine

I feel a new life starting

Old thoughts are fading

I'm a new me

A much stronger me

Confident now

When I once wasn't

I see things in a new light

No longer having to fight

These negative thoughts

I understand now

I'm worth something

I won't back down

I'm here to stay

I feel myself

Rising up

In protest

A burning in my chest

That says

I'm good enough

Not a door mat

I've become rough

To fight

Those who oppose me

I am cage free

The chains gone

They fell away

The beast is released

Teeth bared

I no longer care

The square peg

Broke the round hole

And I will be me

No more sympathy

Your eyes

Dark and possessive

I shiver

From my eyes

The tears fall

The fear takes over

As you touch

So provocatively

Please untie me

Restrained and bound

I can't make a sound

Don't do this

Someone save me

From this wolf

In sheep's clothing

I thought you

Were a friend

But I was wrong

Why are you

Taking so long

I suffer in suspense

Wishing to die

I can only cry

While you break me

The blood is pooling

At your feet

You smirk

Ready to dive in

I hope I black out

But fate is cruel

I must endure

Once you are done

I'll be thrown away

No longer of use

A new victim to abuse

Behind the dirty dumpster

I lie

Trapped in my own filth

I look up to the sky

Death has mercy on me

The Reaper has come

My life is done

I don't know how

To express my love

I hope these words

Are enough

Using an ancient art

To convey

What I can't seem to say

Scrawled onto these pages

Words repeated from old sages

The Magic is the same

Lasting through the ages

A never dying form

That I use without shame

No matter how many times

I say I love you

It's not good enough

So I use these lines

To try and demonstrate

The depth of my emotions

Deeper than the 7 oceans

You have my heart

Forever yours

I give you my soul

Your love does course

Through my veins

Breaking these chains

Touch my heart

And you will see

What you have done to me

A better person

I have become

And I thank you

By writing poetry

To show how deeply

I appreciate

What you've done for me

Love licking the shore

Of my ocean

Things set into motion

Shaking me to my core

I've never felt this before

Can you show me more

You bring me peace

The demons grow quiet

The darkness fades

No more blades

Slicing my soul

This depression

No longer had a hold

The beautiful flower sits

I reach out

To caress the petals

It wilts

Before my eyes

The flower shrivels

Black from my taint

The flower's demise

I cry out

I should have known

That this would happen

In sorrow I moan

It's all my fault

My black heart

Strikes again

Now in your coffin

You were so beautiful

I ruined you

I wish I could die too

A life without me

Would be lovely

Put down my shield and sword

With you

I don't need them anymore

The armor comes off

Piece by piece

No longer at war

I come home to you

You embrace me

A battered warrior

I am home

I'm feeling confused

Feelings of love and fear fused

This is not the path I choose

Yet here I am

Stuck at the crossroad

Please help me see

Why I shouldn't flee

Your love is different

And I just can't

Make sense of it

My head is spinning

Thoughts consuming

My armor is cracked

Will you see the

Beautiful woman inside

Or should she run and hide

Are you a threat

I'm glad we met

It makes no sense

Should I give you a chance

You are my flame

I jump for joy

I know now

I am not just a toy

Fast you came

Into my life

No more strife

I feel at peace

My golden fleece

You accept me

No strings attached

You found the key

I had long thought lost

Because I had tossed

It far away

In hopes

It would never be found

I feared I would drown

Yet now I do not

You have fought

The fears and the doubts

To raise me up

Above the clouds

I ever so gladly

Hand you the key

My beloved

You are here finally
