Angel

Мария Каштанова
Once I was in vapour, walking like a ghost
On cemetery I found a marble angel
Among neglected gravestones…

Lonely angel with snow on folded wings,
Was dreaming of heaven, talking with winds

Between two worlds path of my future goes,
Can’t be candid, no  strength to make choice…

I asked you,  Angel, your sad face is so bright,
"Share your wisdom, tell me "what is right?"

Your seeming calmness reassured my torments of uncertainty
Made me believe I’m bound stay here for eternity

Behind perfection that blinded me it’s light
I couldn’t see images that infested your mind

Your hands of marble were gentle and death cold
So couldn’t feel disgust than you tried to grip my soul

Your bitter smile made wrung my heart
But flame of the truth burnt you and made step aside

Stone angel, first opened your eyes
Staring at blood trickling down from white palms

I"m  leaving you, my angel, I"m going far away
But I must to thank you: now I’m sure in my way...
