Send Me an Angel

On the cusp of something miraculous
said the angel to the girl.
What if you held out your palm
and drew a line in the center, in a swirl.

Keep the line going around and around.
I am the utensil you choose to draw with,
I am your devoted one, we are always bound.
Let me tickle your hand, stay open and not stiff.

I will carry you when there’s no one left,
I will tell you what you need to hear.
I will help you shine brighter on days you are bereft.
We walk together, not alone, side by side my dear.

You may not see me, or know I am ever near.
But fret not, because you can call on me and I will appear,
in my special way to comfort, guide and soothe you.
To ease your mind, I drift in and out, you’ll never be blind.

When you walk, I am watching.
When you sing, I am dancing.
When you cry, I am understanding.
When you run, I am flying.

When we are alone in the forest or by the sea,
it is when I can see you the best, you are so clear to me.
The beauty that you are, just in your form,
makes me so happy you chose this, to be born.

Because when you came here, we came together,
and our journey has been the greatest pleasure.
I can not think or imagine a truer or more loving home
than the one we have, yours and mine, it is our own.

I have loved you and will keep loving you
under all weights, all circumstances, through all barriers.
You are my reason and why the sky is blue.
Your ocean of love reflects up so high, it even carries me through.

I am your angel and there is nothing that can separate us.
When the seasons change and the wind stops,
when the rain starts and the sun drops,
I am endless for you, promised to you, no need for any props.

We can do just fine us two you know…
And you do know, because you’ve already told me so.
In that secret little wish, under your breath that day when you quietly said,
“All I need is my angel, thank you for saving me.”

Here I am and here I stay.
There you are, I hear you pray.
Let’s love today, this one very day.
For we have each other, blessed we are, I must say.

Tears of Fire

Bring the rain sweet angel
We dug ourselves into this burn
It is not your duty
Just waiting for the next turn

Whither and scramble the birds beg
For clear skies and a little leg
What we burn, she burns in return
Lessons and instructions, I yearn

I wonder how long we can do this
Didn’t you know you can’t love and burn oil
Together at the same time, it’s a crime
She tries to wash our sins clean
Her tears aren’t enough to cleanse the steam
We must stop, listen, act and love or we shall be washed away right down the stream

Merrily merrily we hop and flutter
Scroll and swipe indulge in butter
Sitting in rooms of towers littered with flowers
Talking and placing blame on thy neighbour

Life is not but a dream, but a given gift so it seems
Every word, every action, every moment
Opportunity for a better, stronger, cleaner state
Gather and make amends as fast as you can, hurry there’s a lot at stake

I wonder how long we can do this
Didn’t you know you can’t love and burn oil
Together at the same time, it’s a crime
She tries to wash our sins clean
Her tears aren’t enough to cleanse the steam
We must stop, listen, act and love or we shall be washed away right down the stream

Moon Song

It’s time to start
One thing derived from heart
The water over my toes
Can’t leave here, it’s all I know

Green and white, oh what a sight
Brown and blue, you are so true
Without you I’d really lose
Without you I’d really lose

They say things work out
Just the way they’re supposed to
But what if things work in
Mysterious ways just to teach you
That there’s nothing wrong
With following the moon

White noise and sunshine boys
Taking a walk, it’s just a choice
Sipping decaf watching the gulls
It’s funny how the mind mulls and mulls

Did you notice the fading?
Or have you stopped waiting
For the stars to change shape
Or for bones to never break

They say things work out
Just the way they’re supposed to
But what if things work in
Mysterious ways just to teach you
That there’s nothing wrong
With following the moon
