AND I THOUGHT YOU WERE AN ANGEL

 

Rebecca R. Vallerand

And I thought you were an angel...
And I thought you were the end
The beginning, the middle, the everything
The answers
I believed in you, your glowing wings
Your shadowed face and perfect words
And I thought you were an angel
Come to save me and my shattered existence
I thought you were the answer to the questions
The end of the deceits
The beginning of my happiness
I
thought you
were
an angel
And where you came from I didn't care
Or where you were going, as long as
You were taking me there
And I thought we could fly away to that place
The one you promised me though the faerie tales
I thought the sun would kiss my face
And I thought you were an angel
And of course I was wrong.
My angel-turned-devil-turned-nothing-at-all
I thought you were an angel
But you let me fall.
