The Sonnet Of The Lone Guardian Angel Poem by John Duffy

The Sonnet of the Lone Guardian Angel

(A lone voice whispers)


Some walk alone
seeking salvation


Others in groups seeking redemption


Through a silent breath, they all sing the same songs


A convergence of emotions to redo old wrongs


A joining of minds to continue the journeys


Emancipation has always been the lone cries


Voices echoing in the darkest of nights


We hear you and you are never alone


We see you


We are always by your side


This life has never been just a one-person ride


We are always with you in those lonely dark nights


An invisible hand to hold just hidden from sight


Keep your faith in yourself and whatever maybe


The sun will shine just you wait and see


I was bestowed at birth to only you


By your Almighty old friend


To help you in all that you contend


In all that you do


I am a secret friend who nobody sees

To inspire all that is deep awaiting release


I visit nightly when you are asleep


When the world is quiet and you no longer weep


I walk in your deep dreams and we link arms and converse


We speak in all languages where nothing is terse


So if you have a glorious dream


If you wake up and still feel emotions and empowerment from a person unseen


It's simply me


Your guardian angel in life's twisted labyrinthine
