I stood by the window that night,
Stuttering to breathe in the freezing air…
The snow covered scene was all my eyes could see,
The winter’s wrath was hard to bear…
Trapped was I, unable to step out,
Lost so badly … and tired…I could barely shout…
The cold knew not its bounds; it engulfed life all around me,
I kept trying hard to be as strong as I could be…
The last candle besides me was still burning itself to death to keep me warm,
And I knew how it must be feeling…
Loneliness kept biting me all the while…
My heart was burning… for God knows how many ages….
A tear waited eagerly to trickle down the edge of my eye…
I feared that the cold might turn it down to ice right where it originated….
It wouldn’t even let me cry out loud enough to feel at peace…
And …that was when I saw the shooting star…
Its fading trail told me that it just fell somewhere into my snow covered garden…
I ran out to see how and what it looked like…
But …I couldn’t find anything …
Disappointed …I turned back to walk towards the burning candle …
And was taken back to see what stood before of me…
Flaunting the elegant white wings and the powerful magic wand in hand…
Adorned with a peaceful smile and saintly glow…
Was the Angel from the heavens...just for me….
The Angel smiled and mended the melting candle…
It was bright and warm again and so I could breathe …
The Angel made fire and cleared the snow outside…
The Angel now wouldn’t let me freeze…
The Angel sang for me happy songs…
And I felt I never knew ,what was being lonely like…
The Angel watched over me when I fell asleep…
The Angel made sure that everything was all right…
The Angel stayed …The Angel brought in more love and happiness…
The Angel would stay with me forever…and I would bravely fight my loneliness…
