Angel 5
that night looking to the darkness
staring into the night
i begin seeing so much light
within dark searching the skies
dreaming i was one of the wise men
beginning to smile at myself
searching for the star
the one that brought us
his fathers love
i go indoors
ten thirty pm looking
upon my watch
i make myself a cup of coffee
a nightcap before sleep
dressed and got ready
then went to sleep
zero three twenty am
i look at my watch
it felt someone had awoken me
i got this feeling someone
was trying to tell me something
feeling a pang
a lonely pain christmas
it felt someone said
i look around i get the feeling
someone is telling me what to do
words just flowed into my mind
like a river i begin apoligising
in a letter
forgiving the past
giving closure in letter
wishing everyone a happy christmas
very sad someone talked to me i found out
christmas day my mother
said son put your hand on the bible
i thought it a strange request
but i mentioned a few
stories to her
close your eyes
do not be afraid
she said
its not a joke
looking at her face
just knew she was serious
say the lords prayer she said
as the heavenly father will point out
who your guardian angel is
put your hands on the bible
before i put my hands on the bible
it was like i knew who he was
he was a great poet
writing poems and songs
i opened the bible
first name jonah i laughed
out loud
my mother said whats wrong
i said you would not believe this
a month back in the snow
everything around me was white
on my own
in the dark of night
firstly i let on i was noahs ark
i thought to myself rather boring
swallowed by a whale sounded better
came into my mind
sick in heartache
no i laugh
my mother said to me
one of the oldest prophets
in the bible
my god she said
like her eyes dazzled
when she began reading
what i had written that night
my guardian angel
