I walk beside an angel,
He towers over me,
He wraps his arms around me,
And tries to comfort me,
He leads me onto sunlight,
He helps me to find love,
I walk behind him slowly,
As he beckons from above,
His wings are my solitude,
His whisper my silence too,
His eyes my light and hope,
They shine and make me true,
He doesn’t let me stray,
He guides me along,
He reads to me from bible,
I listen to his song,
He is a friend I’m thankful for,
He is a love indeed,
He is my very capture,
But then we are both free,
We are together always,
We cannot be apart,
He is the saviour of my soul,
The protector of my heart,
I hold his hand and dream,
Dream of the beyond,
And know he’s always with me,
When all others are gone,
Even in isolation,
Even when I am caged,
I know he is beside me,
I know that I am saved,
And when I am accused,
When I have done no wrong,
He talks to me, I lose fear,
‘Cause with him I am strong,
We have the strength of heaven,
We have the might of the Lord,
We have the courage of religion,
We do not need much more,
Lift me now my hero,
Glory in thy name,
Wish me to be free,
And then care for me again,
Tell the Lord I’m worthy,
Tell him of my faith,
I walk on earth now, but one day,
I’ll be in the heavens strange,
And you’ll be there for me,
And I’ll be there for someone too,
I’ll then be an angel,
But I’ll still remember you.
magnificent work
This is sincerely the most beautiful poem a I have ever read in my life, and now is my upmost favourite. I love the way you describe your dependency on the Angel, how you feel about him, his gracefulness, the love you express and will of finding faith. I really hope you carry on writing brilliant poems like this in the future. A pure delightful read for anyone and everyone. Well done.
