Angel Held My Hand
One day it was completely fast and free
In the past I can definitely remember and see
We were on our way home from school
My friends and I were in an accident, how cruel
I was severely injured, but by my heavenly angel
My life was spared, which was a miracle
But I suffered a partially paralyzed right arm
This makes it harder doing simple tasks, which brought me alarm
From this tragic event that has transpired
I learned magic, I learned how to write hot wired
And my mind was reprogrammed desiring poetry
So I wrote on and on, rehabilitating myself as you see
This saving grace is all from an angel’s glory grand
She came to me right before the accident, holding my hand
