Long Loney Poems

She's An Angel--

You know I'm just a lonely man 
Walking down this here loney road
 Lonely Street and as I walked past many fine women 
Many fine foxes all walking in line 
Straightened around I turn the corner 
Dodging brothers, them militant brothers blazing about time Looking for a woman to put on the streets 
Then it hit me thinking about you darling 
You and I passed love affair 
Sonic heartedly and blinded by the memories 
Of you and I bump into this wonderful woman 
This lady who's the matched curves vents and wrapped Around her body like the oceans waves
 Her beauty that of a nightingale 
What you are
 Lord have mercy I pray this woman
 I keep at bale 
Couldn't match your ways 
Right then darling I thought of you over the pain 
And the grief right and I remember just where I was just where I am
I remember our last love affair
I remember it as if you were still there
Two people making love
Do you remember
The kissing booth and holding of hands
The melting and collaborating about minds
The taste of sweet honey from your lips 
The warm and tender children we had plans two after marriage 
Your now
And always be mine
You're an angel
She's an angel my, my, my girl
My world she is my angel
Girl you brought joy to my heart 
Security a loving home 
And family never no,  no, no misery 
A private phone
For when you want to be alone 
Queen size bed 
For you sleeping with all the tapestry and trappings 
All this love and affection 
Is just to give you protection 
The man who will trade you in 
Love your friend, came home all the time late 
And you're asking him 
Where he's been 
Well I know it's not my mother 
I know it's not my mother 
And I know it's not my sister 
And I know it's not my sister 
She's not his lady no not that his woman 
A white streak from the sky 
A question to your lover why
If you left her would she cry 
She's not a magician nor a clown or miracle worker 
She's not some kind of backstabber 
He's trying to put you down
Nevertheless I found she's an angel 
She's an angel 
She's an angel,  yeah she's an angel
