When darkness comes to sea
There's light to save my soul
God sent me an angel to be
With a message untold
To protect whats left of my heart
And close to her my life she will hold
To keep my life from falling apart
An angel so magical and so deep
So very bright
Up so high flying above so many feet
I've never seen such a beautiful sight
Gods creation he sent to me
To protect my soul my inner being
From all evil this angel from my presence
She will keep me safe and free
She will help me keep my innocence
My life she will give it a meaning
God sent me an angel
From underneath his very own wing
To guide me through thick and thin
To show me the difference between bad and good
A love my angel will always bring
Forever and always next to me she stood
Knowing she'll always be there
Makes me strong enough for any situation to win
Because my angel will always care

A graveyard of dead trees
Fallen leaves of vast red and orange seas
Squirrels scurry before winter strikes
As children play while others pass on bikes
A harmony of the trees an the wind come together and sing
As a bird chirps then stops to clean it's wing
Children shrieking and screaming as they play
Angry armies of cars roar past, then fly away
Memories start of when I was a kid
Only broken away by time an what it did
Sitting still only in question
Of who I am and to what is my impression
I laughed . . . I played here
I was happy unknown of fear
But then reality again breaks memory's connection
Only to be lost again, still unknown of my reflection
Casting a sapphire gaze around the sun,
You mesmerised my eyes,
That drew inside your mind,
Your Trojan Horse against the world.
Into my being was sewn you as rose;
In lucid blueness,lost,
Too vast for I to bloom,
Creation of your pain surreal;
Pale of a petalled veil,mirrored sun;
Your colour butterflied,
In rainbow wings which gazed
Into my heart and lit my dreams.
