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
