I will find you somewhere in the past
and love you again

and witness your black halo

Ah, my dearest angel.
Sing me to heaven.

  I guess the person broke his heart, yet he can’t seem to stay away…

    I used the image because it appeals to me – like a person who is good by heart but has done evil deeds. Thus that person is bound by the blackness as a result of his or her actions. Something like that 🙂

LOVE the black halo, you got me swooning and then BAM! Now I have this question in my mind about who the speaker is, and who he/she loved…

  Thank you! 😀 In my mind the speaker loved a woman who, when she realised she was dying, abandoned him to experience life at its finest – only to regret her decision as death came. In this poem the two are reunited in the afterlife and he visits her in the limbo she created for herself.
