Salvation

Disclaimer: As usual, I own no character Btvs-related.

Author's Notes: This is told from Angel's POV during Beauty and the Beasts.  Enjoy.

There she stood, helping to light my way back,
Silently cutting through the oppressive black.
So beautiful and inviting in the glow she gives,
Rekindling my desire to live.

I fight through the waves that hold me down,
Wanting nothing more than to erase her frown.
I used to live to see her smile,
Now I fight to see it once in a while.

I shake off the bonds that hold me,
Now so close to being free.
Looking into her eyes, I know I've won.
At last, I'm home where I belong.

She is my light in the darkness,
Being around her, I feel so blessed.
In the blackest night, she is the single flame,
So it is, walking to her, I whisper the sweetest name...
