Our Earthbound Angel

What can I do but let her be?1

She’s stronger than I am anyway2

She fought for her life and earned it more3

Than anyone else upon this world4

 

Her eyes so hidden behind a mask5

She cannot see the great future she has6

She looks to the past at a battle she’s already won7

Haunted by demons there she doesn’t see8

They hold no sway because she’s free9

 

A shield of grace she keeps over us all10

Banishing our fear and all it spawns11

But she has her own and we can’t help12

Our warrior angel whose shield defends us13

Locks her away beyond our calls14

 

Isolated away from us15

She is tempted by darker thoughts16

But she will triumph17

She has done once and will again18

Her steel clad soul cannot be bested19

No matter how those demons test it20

 

All through the night21

We all can see the stars so bright22

Celestial tears turned to frost23

As the seraphim weep for the sister they’ve lost24

 

I want to rise above like her25

Stand and fight alongside her26

Her barrier protects but is her nemesis too27

I try my best but can’t get through28

 

We will never forsake her29

We can never forget her30

Filled with love but also pain31

I struggle against her shield turned cage32

 

If I scream at the sky can she hear me?33

If I look at the moon can she see me?34

So near to us and yet so far35

It is tragic that she doesn’t know36

Our earthbound angel, how precious you really are

Author notes

This is dedicated to a special friend of mine for her birthday which is very soon. I don't know how she feels about attention so i wont name her, however although it's not a story i'd like as many people as possible to see how great she is.
