Lips of An Angel.

I stop at the top of the stairs and look down, Nights coming but i see perfectly with ease, My heart flutters and mouth waters as i loose all sound. And I'm forced to jump just as soon as i hear the jingle of keys. I land with a crash as the cracks shoot through my spine, I loose control of my planned silence and scream, A stranger comes to my side at once as i screech a sign. While i loose my breath and my blood forms a beautiful stream. Down the sidewalk to the road full of anger, A pathway of hate, yellow lined and Godly, Leading to thousands of wrong destinations but to my side a stranger. And beside this stranger i lay just as oddly. Invisible barriers between lives never crossed, But beside me theres freely given compassion, I cant believe my eyes not even when glossed. A horrible world with lovely watching innocence glassed in. The sirens are down the road coming in my direction, Yet i really wish never to mess up the moment in place, The ambulance closer, i see it and close my eyes as if to detour detection. And as i hear my savior blare by, a smile catches upon my face. I use my last bit of strength to pull the woman in my grips, Am i finally holding an angel as i hold my last breath, And i intake life with the touch of our lips. And i die just as soon as the oxygen leaves my chest.
