Grace of Heaven

• Artist: Absque Iter
• Description: If you spend a few years living a life of social solitude, eventually you begin to believe that that is the life you are meant for. Then you meet someone, or someone meets you, and your life changes.
  This poem is based on that idea. I was in the mood for writing, but didn't know what to write. Then, the love of my life told me to write a love poem. So I did. This poem was inspired by and is dedicated to you, my love.

I once upon a time
Hid myself from the world outside
I and solitude's crime
Rid on the only tide
Alone

What did I ever do
How can I truly deserve
Is this dream true
Or will it cruelly curve
Begone

I once saw an angel
And I saw her again
Above the beauty of Babel
Heaven itself and above Eden
Flawless

Her beauty shone bright
Captivating to the eye
Elegant as the night
Hold my heart and let it fly
Weightless

She flew down to earth
Down from Heaven and spoke to me
Once again gave me birth
Broke me open and set me free
Creation

She then held my hand
A soul was made whole again
Promises within a band
Sorrow forever to death is lain
Salvation
