Jennifer Ward Poem
Angel of mercy
A small spark kindles in eager young hearts
With a smile, a song, and a destiny
Their souls a perfect match from the start
How sad she was blind to her eternity
She spent many years wasted in searching
Looking for true love with other men
Always believing their love was abiding
Only to have her heart broken again
Angel of Mercy, comfort her tonight
Show her what's wrong and what's right
He adores her heart, he loves her soul
Angel of Mercy, wrap her in your love
Teach her how to let go
All these years the spark still survives
A small ember in ashes of the past
One look into his eyes and her truth arrives
Her true love she recognizes at last
Spark to flame, flame to inferno
All in one look, in one breath
How she missed it before, she will never know
But now she knows she is his to her death
Angel of Mercy, comfort her tonight
Show her what's wrong and what's right
He adores her heart, he loves her soul
Angel of Mercy, wrap her in your love
Teach her how to let go
She longs to tell him 'I love you'
And turns with her arms open wide
Where once he stood, so solid and true
Now only emptiness and darkness reside
She cries out his name in pure desperation
Her soul weeps 'Where has he gone?'
The universe answers with a sad intonation
'I'm so sorry. You simply waited too long.'
Angel of Mercy, comfort her tonight
Show her what's wrong and what's right
He broke her heart, she lost her soul
Angel of Mercy, wrap her in your love
Please teach her to let him go.
