Monday poetry train - Fallen angel


What is that thing/Qu'est-ce cette chose
Lying on the ground/Étendue sur le sol
With feather twirling/Des plumes virvollent
In the haze that suround him/ Dans cette brume qui l'entourent
Fold into himself/ Replier sur lui-même
With nothing to hide/ Ne cachant rien
Is he my fallen angel/ Est-il mon ange déchu
That came to protect me/ Venu me protéger
From the darkness that keep surounding me/ De la noiceur qui m'entoure
With his spear/ De son épée
Would he kill/ Pourra-t-il tuer
The demons that have tried/ Les démons qui essaient
To steal my soul / De voler mon âme
And tear my skin/ Et déchirer ma peau
Will he with his wings/ Pourra-t-il de ses ailes
Burry me/M'ensevelier
So there would be/ Pour qu'il n'y ait
Only the softness/ Que la douceur
Of his chest/De son buste

    The last few lines have a great impact. One feels cold suddenly after reading that.
