An Angel Feels Forgotten
I saw an angel cry today and I came home and wept
She cried from deep within, the place that her soul is kept
She said she's tired now but not from time not slept
She even asked the Father to rush her time that's left.
I heard an angels heart felt anguish as tears dropped from her eyes.
I'll never forget the sound of a lonely angels cry.
Or how the very ones she loved could sit or just stand by.
Angry lost or smug faces with eyes that were still dry.
I felt the sting of anger as it ignited deep within
Not knowing what to do or even where to begin
I didn't lead with hurtful hands or let the devil in
Instead I held an angel as she cried praying for the end.
Tonight I sit with this memory fresh within my mind
It has me quite speechless my words in a bind
I just can't grasp or even start to find
A reason for an angel to ever feel as though she was left behind.
