A Bloodstained Angel

As I stare at the ceiling blankly,
A ribbon of red rifts my vision
Soft rays of the brilliant sun
Shines through the red gems
Adorned on black silk strings
Which twirled around a black halo
Knots of all kinds, entanglements
As black lace fell down gracefully
Around the dreaming halo
Like teardrops of blood
With crimson-red feathers
Every day, every night
It stands firm, on duty
Never faltering, never breathing
Heartless, blind and deaf
Mindless, silent and apathetic
A bloodstained angel
A guardian of dreams
Takes my worries away
I finally fall into deep slumber
