My Angel

Today I caught an angel,
and held her in my hand.
Her hair so fair, her eyes so blue,
All i hold to be grand.

Today I caught an angel,
who filled my life with light.
She flashed a smile, touched my hand,
and pulled me from the night.

Today I caught an angel,
and shared with her my love.
She laughed so light, and shared the same, 
My angel from above.

Today I caught an angel,
and begged her not to go.
She shook her head and began to cry,
and said it couldnt be so.

Today I caught an angel, 
and my heart she did break.
Angry I let her fly away,
Oblivious to my mistake.

Today I lost my angel,
I pushed away her love.
Away flew my peice of heaven
Away flew my little dove
