Upon Your Cheek

The sunlight splashed
upon your cheek
illuminating a truth
I had yet to behold.
For bathed in light
and birthed by warmth
was the smile of an 
angel,
descended from stars
and forged by flames,
sent from He
who has given us the love
that had overwhelmed 
my heart
and entered my soul,
carrying me to this
present moment,
where time would sleep
and my spirit would
wake
as sunlight splashed
upon your cheek.
