My Angel
My existence was a dark one,
One of meaningless and empty days.
But now you sit and watch me,
As I bask in the warm sunlight of your beauty.
Your eyes, they sparkle like an ocean wave,
Both warm and cold, peaceful and angry.
Your smile warms my frozen heart,
I envy the wind as it brushes against you.
I long to kiss your lips,
The lips that so resemble petals of a rose.
But it remains true, and Angel cannot stay for long.
In time, you will leave me too
And take my heart with you.
So, I keep my love for you hidden, beneath the smile I wear.
Your friendship means too much to me
To lose by confessing my love for you.
You brought out all that I am,
You showed me how to live and love.
I’ve never before experienced a love like mine for you.
But we are only friends;
All your love is given to another.
It remains both my secret and my greatest desire
To someday tell you how I feel.
And that day has finally come,
Where my deepest desire can be fulfilled.
I smile at you, your hand in mine,
And tell you all of my heart, and the love I have for you.
You smile at me and ask me, why it took so long for me to speak up.
You say you had loved me to,
And wanted to hear those words from me.
Now I thank God above every night for what he’s given me.
He’s sent me an Angel,
One who has saved my life and made my life worth living.
Thank you, My Angel,
And I love you.
You are one Angel, that won’t fly away.
