Celestial encounter

My friend, why are you so sad today?
“Have you lost your way?” the angel did say.
“Yes, I admit, I lost my half of my heart.”
“Look at this girl,” the angel did plead.
“She is kind, so smart, a true work of art.”
Then he showed me my mirror of fate.
            
My angel, hear my plea,
Lead me to the path I see.
Bring me to my love,
Bless me with the stars above.
Let my life shine with light,
I’ll win my lonely fight.

I said to my angel: “She seems so strange to me…”
Her ways and faith are different, I see.
The angel said: “You share the same interest,
And still your souls seek the simplest rest.
You’ll walk along one life’s long line,
Two souls, both are children of mine.”

I walked to the square, she came to meet me.
She's even more beautiful than I could foresee.
I see her brown eyes behind a veil of night,
Her smile breaks the dark and gives the light.
She stopped and she looked at me,
She asked: “Are you the soul I am meant to be?”

Our different paths have joined as one.
We walked, hands held under the sun.
My new girlfriend spoke, her voice so clear:
“My family wants me married soon, I hear…
But it means I am losing my fate with you.”
Her words cut deep – hope faded from view.

The party is ready, but bride does not want dress.
The angel appeared and said: “Daughter, do not stress.”
Return to your love, out from this norm.
Touch mine – and I’ll take your form.
Please, run, I’ll change your face and hair.
Together you’ll go, beyond despair.

My angel, you have heard my plea!
I found my soulmate now, I am free.
Together we will stand forever,
Beside the river, leaving never.
The rainbow shone across the sky,
Our angel smiled, then waved goodbye.
