Just An Angel Passing Through

When the winds were at their hardest and the rains fell like waterfalls
Someone ceased the breeze and lured the sun
I'm not certain I was meant to glance at my destiny at best
That's just when my visions of the sacred first begun...

Now, heartfelt sings me lullabies and sweetness holds my hands
So, why am I still wearing these many shades of blue?
I thought once rewarded with grace it was an internal keepsake
Oh, that's when I realized he's just an angel passing through...

If you were never here to stay knowing your wings would carry you away
Did you have to engrave my heart on your quest to chasing fear?
What will I ever do when the winds are ready to lift you?
Just tell me, what is it about me that ever brought you here?...

I walked upon stepping stones wishing the next would be tomorrow's
Another day I may have another chance for hope at last
Then sunrise met with me to greet the one sent for me
And, without hesitation, that angel just soared right past...

I am just here sifting through his fingers like sand
Going quickly, then slowing, til' the remains find it's release
Then, in the blink of an eye, I'm gone, and I never even got to leave my mark
God, do you think he'll ever find the strength to carry me?...

I'm lingering within serene and love at it's finest
Living in my minds image of the warmth like the sun
I swear, God, I'm on a mission to forgetting
But, I think it's gonna take dying to get it done...

Why did he ever have to brand me through my valley of darkness?
Why would he give the world only something he can lend them?
I pray he looks back and sees me the second time around
Oh, God, if not, can I follow him back to heaven?...

(big hugggssssss) Oh Saunni, I know with all my heart He will always be here for us all, for you are a true angel and every angel has a song and even has the right to dream and He will train us all to enfold our wings always! (kiss on cheek) God Bless You, sweet friend, this is very touching, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Saunni, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

I like to think we have many angels that just pass on through, it's nice to have the memory of being touched by an angel though, enjoyed the read.
