Angels Closed Her Eyes

Please god protect her
pull her out of this phase
i dont want to lose a friend
i dont want to have to remember her face

she did it again last night
worse then before
her mom and her got into a fight
and now she is sore

she holds it in her hand
then carves into her skin
she cries while she does it
what world is she trapped in

she says its to get back at herself
but what has she done
shes loveed by many
and only hated by some

at school she seems fine
like nothing is wrong
but in her head a melody plays
its her sad sad song

she called me up tonight
to say goodbye
she then hung up
and i started to cry

i tried to call back
but the line was dead
then panic and fear
ran through my head

i grabbed my coat
and stormed out the door
when i had reached her house
i started to explore

her mom was gone
the lights were off
and from the back room
came muffled coughs

i ran back there
and opened the door
there say lay
broken on the floor

i put her head in my lap
and looked at the mess
blood was all over
her brand new dress

she looked at me and smiled
then closed her eyes
the neighbors ran over
because they had heard my cries

i held her tightly
and closed my eyes
wishing that this
could all be a lie

the paramedics came
at a very fast pace
they pulled me away
as they covered her face

her mom arrived home
and got the bad news
she walked over to me
and asked what i knew

i told her everything
leaving out not one detail
and as i went on
her face grew pale

family and friends
crowded into the church
and as the funeral began
so did the hurt

sad songs were sumg
and stories were shared
the pain hurt so much
i could hardly bare

after the funeral
i stood at her grave
my knees became weak
and i gave way

i fell to the ground
and broke into tears
wishing i could hold her
and that she were still here

i felt a cool breeze
and i knew she was there
i took a deep breath
and shivered in the autumn air

i started to think about everything
and as time flew by
i realized this is all part of gods plan
for angels to close her eyes
