Light spills around you like a halo,
Framing the face of the merciful angel of destruction.
Soft as an infant’s kiss and unforgiving as the road through the Andes.
I feel as though you were sent to destroy me through my own desires.

Soon halo fades to soft glow,
and the timeless beauty of your features leaves me awestruck and speechless.
I could stare at your face forever,
but I must look away to avoid becoming lost
in this moment I’ve fabricated for myself
