if you dream me
dream me
without these horns

without scorn
back beside the lord

out of this fire
but of your desire

in heaven in your dreams

if you see me
see not
my black wings

see me not for these things
but
in spite of these things

show me your mercy
where God would just curse me

in love
not
in flames

think it not
to be blasphemy
if
my
heart
you should ask of me

know that
there was
once
grace
behind
these
lines in my face

centuries i had
to burn
for you

but perhaps a new leaf
even
a devil can
turn for you
