Angel

The last tear I will ever cry for you
falls slowly down my cheek,
as someone close grads my hand
saving me from this slow death

I was almost swallowed up into a hole
that would eat away at my soul,
leaving me feeling used and unwanted
by any other person in the world

But someone has answered my prayer
sending a person along to help me
find a new path down this long road
that won't involve your pain

I say a final goodbye to you
and everything you put me through
leaving you behind in the dust
lead by my angel that saved me
