Angel Glance

Priyadarshinee Ghosh 2008 (India)

Lyric
She appeared out of thick glossy sky;
Like nothing ever known to life,
With wings purer than light—
And smile brighter than butterfly.

Stepped forward as my eyes shone brighter—
With her very own image abstractly mirroring in there.

Gently patting my head as she disappeared;
Leaving me in the middle of nothing but—
Darkness and despair...
