My angel

Author: Yahya Badal

All began with a dream,

I was approached by someone,

The unseen face,

With the most beautiful set of wings,

I had ever seen,

Her voice,

As soft and warm as a gentle summer breeze,

I became lost in her presence,

Even more so,

I became consumed by her very essence.

She said,

”To the boy I love,

I would be willing to give the wings off my back,

Unless it helps him to fly.”

All I assumed only,

“Do you love me?”

Came no answer, neither any appearance thereafter,

Just the remembrance of that only,

Angel of mine.
