Guardian angel

by MERCY is never shown   Oct 20, 2008


Dear God
is this a test?
taking him away?
am i next on your list?
i try to hide it all
my emotions, the scars, these tears
i trip in the hall
as everyone goes on by
he'd stop to help
he'd hold me as i cry
he would help me stand
when the world
knocked me to my knees
he always held my hand
holding me together
when i was ready to fall to pieces
now they say
a tall brunette boy walks at my side
barefoot in ripped jeans
with wings folded to his bareback
they engulf me
when I'm ready to fall apart
they say his brown eyes
shine through mine
i wonder if they're seeing you?
your memory? your ghost?
My Guardian Angel.

    Wow i really loved this, it was so touching. I loved how it went from like just a boy and then transitioned to the angel. I loved it, and it was great. a well deserved 5/5

    Its nice to think we have a guardian angel, even if we don't its nice to just pretend we do. I'd want the person I love most by my side forever, I wouldn't feel alive or whole without them. Great work 5/5 Remember always capitalize your i's because its you so its always a capital no matter what. Nice work

    Eveyone always needs someone to hod them together when things are hard. It sounds like your angel was that perfect person. I could picture how everything look down to when you looked into his eyes.
