Dreams are crushed by a cold blank stare
She fell to the ground
Of death not even aware

She stepped in front as the bullet sped
And yet my life
Was barely spared

Broken hearted I fell to my knees
Life in turmoil
I didn't want to see

The dark red blood mixed with my tears
I heard her last breath
Confirming my fears

I stood by her as the killers came near
They took my life
My blood seared

I fell beside her as life faded from my eyes
I took her hand
As I died

Beautiful darkness encloses once more
The smallest sound echoes, my tears falling to the floor
The shadows hide me from my fear of the light
And my tears show silver in the absense of my fright

The day wears on as the sun moves across the skies
Soon the night will come to silence all the lies
I only wish the day was shorter than my loving night
I seem to only live when the moon gives me life

I'm lost in my thoughts so I son't see the shadows fade
The sun sun has crept his way to the safety that I made
I look up in fright as the light shines in my eyes
But I don't melt or burn, nor do I feel myself die

Odd I think, that it doesn't steal my soul
In fact I think its warmth has made my spirit whole
I leave the whispers that sung only shadowed words
Because when I step into the light I feel music I've never heard

A fire burns inside my soul
Searing away the pain
Your body pulled close to me
Your hands keep me there
Heat and passion fill my heart
Never letting go

But you left and took my heart
I thought it would return
The pain I kept, the love I lost
Off the edge of the world
I step

Longing to feel your love
Wanting you for myelf
Feeling your arms around me again
Your lips I long to touch

Far away my heart is happy
Very far away
So close am I to your sweet touch
But so far away...

Is love

I miss you
I mis your eyes
You know the ones
I want to stare at forever
I miss your smile
You know the one
That I cant forget
That always made me smile
I miss your voice
You know the one
That made me swoon
That made me feel safe
That made me happy
I miss you laugh
You know the one
That made me laugh too
But most of all
                         I miss you...

I talked to her last night
As if she was here with me
I cried for her last night
As if she could see my tears

I whispered to her last night
As if she would respond
I sang to her last night
As if she could hear my song

I wrote for her last night
As if she would see those words
I said sorry to her last night
As if she had never been hurt

I dreamt of her last night
As if dreams ever come true
I loved her last night
As if she loved me too

A touch is more
Than just simple lust
A touch is a promise
To love

A kiss is more
Than hello, good bye
A kiss is a hope
To trust

A smile is more
Than a ray of sun
A smile says
"I care"

A lover is more
Than just a friend
A lover completes
Your soul

Are you  crying little angel?
While the day turns to night.
Are you sighing little angel?
As the stars begin to light

Is your heart broken little angel?
Because love left you behind
Is your heart looking little angel?
For the love you want to find

Are you bleeding little angel?
From the cut that cut too deep
Are you weeping little angel?
When you fall to eternal sleep

Is he waiting little angel?
When you get to the golden gates
Is he smiling little angel?
When you look upon his face

Are you happy little angel?
When you get your silver wings
You are free little angel
When your soul finally sings

Is it beatiful little angel?
In that paradise above
You have found it little angel
That everlasting love
Written originally for my ex who wanted to leave this world. I always called her my little angel. But I hope it will touch someone else the way it still does when I read it
