untitled #7

there once was a land, charred in demon's wake, all the plants and creatures, burnt alive to a crisp.
it was a deserted wasteland covered in nothing but ash and blood.
it with as home for myself, it was a place i resent so much.
the demons played among the remains, tore down buildings and purged the land.
casting salt over the landscape so nothing could ever sprout again.
they dug up every root and tree stump and drained every lake,
they destroyed the only place i ever felt at home.
when this world was at it's darkest, not a single thing moved,
time stood still among the remains, the sunlight would never visit again.
but open up the clouds did, broken apart by a beam
not a light from the sun but from heavens it emerged.
down came angel, the most beautiful i ever saw.
she cast a spell upon the demons and made them crawl back to hell.
she told me 'dear, do not be afraid. i'm here to mend the broken land.
i'm going to take away the hurt, the broken and the damned.'
so she did, she brought light back to this place.
she cast rays across the plains and rebuilt every broken town.
she refilled every last lake exact the the nearest drop,
replanted every single fern, grew again every flower and tree.
she made the land beautiful and gave me hope once again.
a feeling greater than any dismay, sickness or pain.
a feeling of belonging, a feeling i cannot explain.
for a moment i was in heaven, a heaven crafted on by this land
the land that the angel bought back, the land that is now hers.
she told me 'darling, i will never let this land fall into turmoil again,
i'll be here forever whenever you beckon my name.
i'll always be with you for better or for worse.
i'll keep you within my heart as long as mine is in yours.'
with that she spread her wings, braced and picked herself up
she flew towards the sun and disappeared from this place.
left me alone in this land that began slowly dying again
and when i scream out her name, my cries ring out in vain.
my cries ring out in vain.
they circle around every lake and ocean,
get lost amongst the rain.
beaten down by the heaven, she's not coming for me again.
i'll find a way, i swear. i'll make this right once again
i swear i'll bring my seraph back, i need her with me now.
i'll fight every force of nature to find a way to make love stay.
