just when darkness was claiming me
when my breath became laboured,my chest tightening
the vines around my wrists climbing up my neck
you, the Nightingale that you are
kept vigil,nursed my bruised and battered body to health
never leaving my side,till I regained my strength and will to fly
you,the magnificence that you are
refined me,exalted me to higher places
worthy to dine with the Lords and queens
you,the alchemist that you are
smelted and rebuilt my heart,once faulty and rusty
into a pure masterpiece, of pure gold
you,yes you,the lover of my soul,caretaker of my heart
you have flown to be with the other angels
though I miss you,I am not lonely,nor empty
our memories imprinted in my brain
this heart is engraved with your name
I’m forever yours,and you forever mine
