Dark Angel Dark Angel Prologue In the winter twilight when the world is mauve and gray you come whispering round my edges at the dying of the day. With the dying of the light all my hopes soon bleed away but never dies my love at the dying at the dying at the dying of the day. DARK ANGEL In the lonely night your name is my solace In a waking dream I taste my blood again You brought me death my only love still I burn with lust and shame. Your name between my heartbeats pulses steady in my brain your body calls my body your pain reaches for my pain. Through the lonely night you alone can hold me you whom I will never hold again your memory embraces like a vise Sweet tormentor, patron of my pain. You rule my nights, dark angel without pity for my bitter tears I am your grateful victim for all the nights of all my years.
