SONNET LIII - REVELATION

The night has come and here I lie alone
Beside the corpse of love that I destroyed
Here in the dark the chill has only grown
And there's no warmth to fill this hopeless void
Through blackened cracks the ash of our love fell
And still my desperate soul puts up a fight
I cry to you, please save me from this hell
But there is only silence in the night
It's over now, for good, but still I cling
To hope that only adds to sorrow’s weight
At last I realize one simple thing:
It's all my fault. I chose this awful fate
   I broke an angel’s heart without a care
   And now I need her light and she's not there
