I want to be an angel

I want to be an angel someday

A child’s innocent dream,

I want to fly up in the clouds

When the rain falls,

know it’s my tears on your cheek

Years pass by and amazement comes

from the beauty, and innocence within

A nurturing feeling behind dark eyes

With a smile that doesn’t seem to end

I want to be an angel someday

but for now my wings are missing

My mind is like clouds that fill the sky

On a muddy, grimy day

I’m working through a maze

reaching nothing but dead ends

And as you’re slipping from me

Your charm all seems to cave in

Your smile disappears

with the gleam lost in your eyes

And without you at my side

I find it harder and harder to get by

But I still want to be an angel

To grace your dismal life

I want to wrap my arms around you

Dry off all your tears

I’ll be your guardian angel

You shouldn’t have to fear

My soul cries out for seeing you

Just like you were last year.....

Beautiful. ...beautiful.

Whew!

Wow! Do you have music for this or is it just a poem? Were I a recording artist I would buy this off of you to be a song!! This needs to be sung I can hear and feel it!
