My Vigilant Angel Poem by Lindokuhle Dawordplaymind Nkosi

I'm all alone in the deserted night
You were the best thing that ever happened in my life
Why did you have to leave, when I wanted you to stay?
Why did you change your path, when I wanted us to be intertwined?

You were my life and my soul
You replenished and inspired me in everything
You were always motivating me
That someday the sun will come on my way
And when my future was seemed so dimmed and blur
You made me to hold on to every word you uttered

Yet today I find myself like a lone dove
Sorrow has become my best friend
I've been swallowed by darkness
Will someone come and save me?
Will someone hear my cries and wipe away my tears?
Will the sun bring light and warmth to me?
Or has it also abandoned me?

I'm gonna walk in this dark corridors alone
'til I find the light in the end
I will find happiness again in this pool of sadness
And remember I'm your child that you left alone.
