“In the Wake of Your Love"

  (Mary, My Angel)

Before I met you, I was broken and lost —

A man with no hope, paying a heavy cost.

The villain of stories, quick to ignite —

My heart was a desert… no love in sight.

I’d rage in seconds — couldn’t control,

Empty inside with a shattered soul.

Then you showed up — calm and kind,

A light in the dark I was desperate to find.

Your love hit me deep — changed my whole view,

Now I’m a king who finally knew.

My heart’s no longer dry — no longer bare —

It’s a garden where you live, sweet and fair.

Mary, my angel — you live in my heart,

From the day we met, you’ve been every part.

When I look at you, pain fades away —

In your eyes, I see a brighter day.

Your smile is a gift I treasure so much —

It lifts me up with just a touch.

Even the pain feels good when you’re near —

You’re my sweet ache… my joy and my fear.

You’re the prayer answered I waited to find —

My delicate queen — one of a kind.

So innocent, precious, pure as the sky —

The angel who’s lifted me so high.

You’re my day and night — my dark and light —

The ache in my heart — my cure so right.

When morning comes or night falls deep —

You’re the only thought I always keep.

You woke a beauty I didn’t know I had —

Made me feel proud — not lost or sad.

If fate lets us walk this road side by side —

I’ll be your king… your life, your guide.

No more broken — no more pain —

With you, I’ve everything to gain.

This love is real — this love is true —

Forever starts… and ends with you

Summary :

         Before I met you, I was a broken man with nothing left to lose.

I was the villain in everyone’s story — quick to anger, lost in darkness, and hollow inside. My heart was like a barren desert: no love, no hope, nothing but silence and dust.

But then you came along.

Since the day I met you, your love has changed me in ways I never thought possible. Now, I feel like a king who has finally found his crown. My heart is no longer dry and lifeless; it’s a blooming garden — and in that garden lives the most beautiful, sweet, and gentle angel I’ve ever known: Mary.

Yes, my angel… you’ve lived in my heart from the moment our souls touched.

When I look at you, every pain disappears. When I gaze into your deer-like eyes, I see how beautiful this world truly is. When you smile at me, it feels like I have everything the universe could possibly offer. Even pain feels sweet in your presence — because you are my sweet pain, my lovely angel.

You are the prayer my heart had been whispering for so long.

You are my little queen — delicate, innocent, sweet, precious, and deeply cherished.

You are the angel sent to me from the seventh heaven.

You are my day and my night, my joy and my sorrow.

You are the ache in my heart… and the cure for it.

Whether I wake in the morning or close my eyes at night, all I think about is you.

You are my Mary.

You are my life.

You awakened a beauty in me I never knew existed.

And if fate allows us to walk this path together, I will be your king — your life, your world, your forever.
