Angels Tears {resubmit}

I once opened up my heart as I looked to the sky
Then the clouds opened up and they started to cry

I had not thought about this until that very day
The rain is angel’s tears that wash the dirt of life away

What that leaves behind don’t you know its true?
Is a world that is left fresh, clean and new

I am sharing this with you because I wish you to know
Every time I think of you it does the same thing to my soul

You have a way of changing me with no more than a thought
This is how you who taught me the dearest things in life can't be bought

When I started this poem I had no idea where it would go
I only knew I had to express the feelings you give to my soul

I don't think that it’s true meaning will ever be understood
For it could never do you justice no words ever could

The only thing that I can pray this poem could ever do
Is to let an angel know that sweetheart I love you
