Angel Apology

Were you the angel who held on tight through my darkest hours ‘til the new day’s rise? Did you tuck me in, memories erase, ‘til I drifted off, comfortably embraced? And the song I heard at the edge of night ~ was it yours that helped me to greet sunlight? I remember how each day felt brand new waking up with joy, opening eyes to you. I relinquished peace, sacrificed too much ~ I, with concrete needs, longed for you to touch, so I, selfishly, tried to turn and run, but have missed you every day since then.
