In the darkness 
Of night
A soul sheds
Silent tears
A heart grieving
For what has been lost
Struggling to cope
With a life
Now filled
With constant pain

An Angel appears
Quietly he sits
By her side
Gently he folds
His wings around her
Shielding her
Giving her warmth
And 
Comfort

He whispers words
Of love
Compassion
Encouragement
And
Blessings
His words
Washing over her
Like a healing balm

She looks up 
At this beautiful
Radiant being
And with a smile
She says
Thank you
So much
For giving me hope
