Angels

I think they must be angels,
they push, they pull and 
they tug and when I try to 
let go I feel a gentle hug. 

I think they must be angels, 
they call, they whisper, they
sing and when I doubt the 
moment their voices come 
to me. 

I think they must be angels, 
loving, wise and kind, they 
directed me down the road 
and eased my troubled mind. 

I think they must be angels, 
they touched my from inside
left a print upon my heart 
and wiped the tears from 
my eyes. 

I think they must be angels, 
as I have thrown in the towel 
and when I least expected it 
they gave to me a smile. 

I think they must be angels, 
for they know me better than
I know myself and when the 
curtain of sorrow falls they 
remove the power of hell. 

I think they must be angels, 
when the storms of winter fall
they give to us a reminder
through the rays of sun they 
call. 

I think they must be angels, 
they come in many a disguise
and lend a ear so that I may
quietly confide. 

I think they must be angels, 
sympathetic and true for 
when I reached out a hand
they once more led me to you. 

I once more found myself
in the arms of yesterday,
when all was as it seemed
and happiness replaced
the gray.

I could have done it differently,
the choices I had made but with
no regrets I let go and the dreams
with the wind took way.

The script was written in error and 

no provisions were made and that is 

why a tear drop falls each 

and everyday. 

~

The stars go on forever, 

the mountains top the sky

and the steps that led me 

to you confuse the mind. 

The blue bird returned, 

the wren she stayed behind

and I thought about the 

strength it takes to heal 

this heart of mine. 

~

It is not strength that makes the decisions

for I have been on a course of choice other 

than my own. 

~

It just might be winter

or the darkness of the 

day, but somehow I 

highly doubt it, as the 

pain has never gone 

away. 

I placed upon my face 

a masque made of a smile 

and a band aid upon my 

heart that stuck for the 

long mile.
