promise

     promise
crystal shading crystal
wings beating to bring on high
a gift, a presence
one most welcome nigh
breath me your fantasy
whispers rising on dark
swooping in to wrest control
over every inch of fabric fought
breath so sweet warm
filling, exposing ,caressing soul
comforts terrors this of nights fold
yet still you stand,  so open,  alone
trust so shattered , so lost
tear of shadows drifting down
one in so many this path has found
yet here i remain ,if ever thee wishes
to hold thee in nights embrace
shelter thee from coming dawn
strengthen thee for this days race
only think of me   i will be here
