Angel

The days are bad the nights are worse, I was beginning to think I had truly been cursed. Then you were here stretching your hand toward me, An angel from heaven sent straight to my soul at top speed. You have believed in me when no one else could, You have picked me up and carried me when no one else would. You freely gave, The love I so hungrily craved. You have shown me I am beautiful in my own way, You have been here on my worst day. I can sleep peacefully now knowing, That at dawn's first glowing... I shall awake and you shall still be here, My angel, whispering, "I love you, so have no fear!
