You

When I found you
I needed mercy at your hand
couldn't stand another
minute of lonely alibis

You gave to me, every
minute of your soul
Holding you meant the
world was mine
and I felt wanted

Every breath, every moment,
every tear that I have shed,
you wiped away with the
touch of your hand

When we embraced, I felt the fire beneath my skin
I lived for each cherished moment
I knew the sound of your
heart could lead me home

The day you left, I crumbled
to my knees
Screamed in anger at the
thought of this world without you
Staring down the fire
unquenched inside of me
I fought the storm that
brewed within
How could I give up all the million melodies never sung

Falling to the floor, I shook
my fist up to the heavens
You were mine for just a moment

I found my peace and I bless
each day I had with you

I know God needed an angel
more than I
