Your name has slain the darkest things
that keep me up at night.
You've slain my vampires; no wonder
they call you the knight.

This mawkish nature within
the crybaby has slowly shrunken
all because of a feared one,
all because of a heavenly ten
with chiseled features
and sculpted discipline...

all because of
an angelic beast.

Remember?
I flipped into your world,
not alert enough to see
you're the deepest cliff
I could fall into.

Remember?
I kept my sight down,
my head low
'cause I'm too weak
to face the world.

And now...
it's been a long, long while
since I last glanced at the sky.
I reckon you didn't know why.

Keeping my courage down
is delicately enough.
It's the perfect minute to be
strong and tough.

I was delighted more,
though the howling sound inside me
was made by your au revoir,
when I looked up
and saw your masterpiece:
a sky painted lilac.

You brought sunrise to me,
angelic wolf.
