Angel

To hear your voice and feel your words when
I was feeling down. Sometimes your existence
Brought me a sense of peace and love. Your
Actions soaring high. You know I have been
On roads far wide, and up, but the distance
Pulled us together along the way. The door
Was wide open and you pushed me to walk
Through it. You are my angel and guiding
Light, always leading me to the right path.
I am in grace, knowing you will not block
My blessings and I am coming out of hiding.
I know I have escaped this world’s wrath
And hells with you right there to pull me out.
It was before you when I did not believe in
Angels or good things, but I stopped investing
My faith into the devil. You threw away doubt
And my self-destruction. You forgive every sin
While keeping the world from continuously testing
My patience and every one of my beliefs. You make
The sun weep and the moon laugh. You twist, turn,
And shape the darkness to make it fit into the light.
You patch the tears, pieces, scrapes and every break.
Like Usher said in his song, you “gotta let it burn.”
We cannot let it ride us into the darkest part of the night.
