Angel
I ventured far from heaven
My feet gracing the earth
Humans giving an immortal
A mortal heart birth
My wings cramped as I venture
Invisible to all
But as I continue my adventure
I hear the royal call
As I spread my wings to fly away
I see you standing there
With your bright blue eyes
And your long white hair
You skin is white and sickly
But I see your beauty too
As my eyes catch your smiling face
I can't help but smile back at you
My wing fold back
As I hear the call again
For now I've seen your beauty
And here I must remain
Wings only visible to immortals
Begin to dissapear
Before they are completely gone
I feel an angel tear
I wipe the tear off my cheek
And say hello to you
You accept my greeting
and my love too
Now a mortal
With a beating heart
For now I get a second chance
To have a human start
For love can only be found
In a certain place called home
And this planet is now
The home I can call my own
