Ten Thousand Angels

Ten Thousand Angels

Listening to the silence
I felt you touch my soul.
I could sense a teardrop fall
as you lost all control.

I felt the heartache in you
As mine then did break too.
I knew what was happening
was happening to you.

I called heavens angels
though I uttered not a sound.
I told them I had a friend
that needed them around.

I felt them leave their resting place
as they left one by one.
I sent ten thousand angels
before the night was done.

I saw deep within my heart
as they gathered round so warm.
Protecting you and keeping you
safe from your life's storm.

I bid them to stay awhile
to keep you from what harms.
The night ten thousand angels 
held you in their arms
