Angel
I see you there glowing,
like an angel in a darkened sky,
gentle as I ever seen.
I bow my head before your eyes.
But alas, you are sleeping,
And your eyes are closed.
It’s just a figment of my imagination,
you were there you really were.
I see no sense in what you are.
To me you are the most wonderful creature,
and maybe you truly are an angel,
sent from God to guide me.

Hello
I liked this immensely, a nice soft read. A possible typo. Did you mean 'gentle' where you have 'gentile'? Alex.

I would choose...
to present this just a little differently, like so:
gentle as [I've] ever seen.
But your eyes are closed
you are sleeping.
comma: "you were there, you really were."
Nice stuff! ~ Geez.
