Mourning Skies

My Angel

I followed a shadow under my door

And found an amazing sight

An Angel stood before me

With a smile kind and bright

With opened arms he smiled

But revealed a twinge of pain

He grasped my hand in his

And we soared across the plane

He protected me from sadness

And he let me know the lies

But I always saw the sorrow

Behind his deep brown eyes

Some would say he saved me

And maybe that is true

But he really was the only one

Who truly got me through

I've never felt so beautiful

As when I was in his gaze

But little did I know

Happiness never stays

One day he wasn't there

When I awoke inside our bed

But our world wasn't like before

It was like a nightmare in my head

Shadows were on the prowl

Stealing light from here and there

I dashed out through the cold

To search for him somewhere

To the day that I write this

I've never found his light

All I can recall

Are his eyes that shined so bright.
