My Angel

by Gabrielle   Mar 13, 2008


*this I wrote to be a song*

Here the minutes pass like hours, I let the shame consume me.
Now only living off the hatred you bitterly threw back at me.
Shed our love like worn pedals and I will begin to dig my own grave.
The soil absorbing my tears, not knowing the happiness I threw away.
Tearing the wings of my angel I have single handedlly slain.
Every scream blended with the uncertainty of salvation.

Yet to see your light shine upon me.
Every moment held within myself I'm slowly forgetting.
Forever lost in the thought that you'll come back.
Fighting my imperfections, leaving mistakes in the past.

Pulling at these shackles, forcing me back onto the ground.
Looking beside me, my one chance left to be found.
There's no promise of tomorrow, only a shallow grave.
Feeling the pain in my heart, knowing you threw me away.
Save me from my demons, the regrets I hide.
Tearing me from the inside your words imprinted in my mind.

Yet to see your light shine upon me.
Every moment held within myself I'm slowly forgetting.
Forever lost in the thought that you'll come back.
Fighting my imperfections, leaving mistakes in the past.
