My Angel

Not in my mind

Not in my life

Did I think of committing adultery.

We are but one soul,
Even before we met.
And not in a while

Will I perchance not miss you.

O distant light, are you like the stars

That we can see and talk of

That preserves our fate 

That guides us in utter darkness, 

And yet we cannot possess,

Only a hope to be

After the end of life!

Should I just think of you,

And weary myself with your thoughts,

But still restrict myself to talk to you?

I am but a human, weak in the flesh

Can I not deviate, like everyone

To be at peace with the Devil?

Do I torment myself,

Of the righteousness,

And make the gods jealous

To test me till I fail?
Be my guiding light,
Be in every moment of my life,
That even if I fail,
I will trust you,
As you would trust me!
