francesca

i met you too late francesca 
there with your purple dotted dress 
sitting alone in a lilac world 
tears streaming from brokenness 

somehow 
i knew your desires 

and all that you wanted  

that you needed 
to add color to your world 

and you did 

i stood alone 
remembered your smile 
and wondered why you could not stay 
for just a while 

when i saw you turn 
i knew you would go 

walk away into the mist 
ever so slowly 
never looking back 

there were no tears in your eyes 
and yet your heart wept 

it was then i knew 
you could not stay 

sometimes angels just can’t
