Forbidden Angel

Forbidden Angel

Peacefully you slept
    my handsome angel
whose heart I kept
    safe and secure
I protected it...

    with intentions pure
love everlasting 
    no pain would you endure
you were my angel
    I was your cure...

to my surprise
    you were an angel in disguise
you touched my heart
    but heard no cries
my face was dry...

    filled with pride
my mind wept
      while to my face you lied...     

Why handsome angel
    why lie to me
on your wings I was home
    in your arms I was free
now I fly alone
    this didn't have to be...

My handsome angel
    I've let go of your wings
I have set your heart free
    now fly on and be happy
you are now and forever 
    a forbidden angel to me...

Lay

Great way to end this one, "a forbidden angel to me". And you put it as the title too. He sure deserves to be made forbidden!
