The Sonnet of the Lone Guardian Angel

 

(A lone voice whispers) 



Some walk alone

seeking salvation



Others in groups seeking redemption



Through a silent breath, they all sing the same songs



A convergence of emotions to redo old wrongs



A joining of minds to continue the journeys



Emancipation has always been the lone cries



Voices echoing in the darkest of nights



We hear you and you are never alone



We see you



We are always by your side



This life has never been just a one-person ride



We are always with you in those lonely dark nights



An invisible hand to hold just hidden from sight



Keep your faith in yourself and whatever maybe



The sun will shine just you wait and see



I was bestowed at birth to only you



By your Almighty old friend



To help you in all that you contend



In all that you do



I am a secret friend who nobody sees


To inspire all that is deep awaiting release 



I visit nightly when you are asleep



When the world is quiet and you no longer weep



I walk in your deep dreams and we link arms and converse



We speak in all languages where nothing is terse



So if you have a glorious dream



If you wake up and still feel emotions and empowerment from a person unseen



It's simply me



Your guardian angel in life's twisted labyrinthine
